Which LED lighting for 90 gallon freshwater (no plants)

[joy_division]

I was reading through some threads for LED lighting in tanks and have to ask my own questions.

At petsolutions,com, they have three types of LED lights. I would like to know which one would be the most appropriate replacement for my setup.

I have a double tube fluoureschent light with 2 32w bulbs.

Which of the three items on this webpage would be something to replace it, and the number of units.

The three on the top.

I am no expert but here are my thoughts.

I would go with the Marineland simply because it looks like it is the only freshwater LED system that is intended to be used on it's own.

Thank you. The Panorama retrofit though is also stand alone, but a lot less lumens. There is a video on the page that shows it being mounted in a canopy.
I'm hoping someone who has one of these units responds.

Joy, if you are handy at all, you might want to consider building your own. This is especially true if you have minimal interest in plants. I’m talking regular screw-in LED light bulbs.

Lights of America (in our area, sold by Sam’s Club), sells two, 3.5 watt bipin LEDs for about 15 bucks. At Home Depot, you can buy the bulb fixtures to hold these bulbs for about 1.50 each. If you have simply wiring ability, you can assemble a light fixture using these regular LED bulbs.

Here is what I did on a four foot, 75 gallon tank. I used eight of these bulbs, in two strips of four bulbs each, to light this tank. I currently have plants in there and am still waiting to see if the light from these LEDs will do the trick. Here are pictures on one strip of four, and this same strip suspended in the canopy:

Wow, pretty wild. I am a little handy. It's certainly a possibility. I am in no rush. All the feedback I get will help me make a decision. Thank you.
