LED

i dont know what to do with my 90 gal planted tank i want to set up. ive done a lot of research and it seems each type of light has its own pros and cons. i was wondering what you guys think. i want to use LED lights because they last forever, give the tank the nicest look and personally i just dont want to deal with replacing expencive strips every 6 months to keep my tank looking nice. but ive heard they do not give off enough lumens to sustain a overgrown planted tank. please help me out.

Marineland has a new plant spectrum LED light. If I remember correctly, it is 6700k. Dunno the lumens, but everyone I've talked to who has them has seemed REALLY impressed. If I remember correctly, It costs somewhere around $225. I'd reccomend that.
