An LED-based lighting system is provided for aquariums, habitats, farms, terrariums, and/or enclosures for keeping animals and/or plant life and/or other enclosures. In one embodiment, the LED-based lighting system includes an LED circuit board or strip adapted to provide a particular wavelength of light, such as, red, blue, or green light. Several circuit boards or strips may be strung together end-to-end or side-to-side and, while each circuit board or strip may be adapted for providing a particular wavelength of light, the several circuit boards or strips may be adapted to provide several wavelengths of light, e.g. a mixture of spectrum. The several circuit boards, while providing different wavelengths of light, may be substantially the same in most respects except for the LED's positioned on the strip and a jumper selectively connected to provide a control signal line adapted for controlling the particular wavelength LED installed on the respective strip.

A method and apparatus of lighting a marine habitat for growth utilizing an LED light system. The light system includes an LED light source, a power supply for such light source and a controller for controlling the activation status and the intensity of the LED light source.

Marine LED lighting system and method

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for irradiation of plants using optoelectronic devices. In accordance with this invention, optoelectronic devices that emit radiant energy at the appropriate wavelength are operated in a continuous mode or pulsed asymmetrically at a frequency and level of electrical power that results in sufficient irradiance to support plant growth and development. The apparatus consists of: (1) an array of optoelectronic devices, primarily light emitting diodes, for producing irradiance in each of three different wavelength regions necessary for specific plant photobiological reactions, (2) a pulse generator and associated electric power driving components, and (3) an electric direct current (D.C.) power supply.
