Led lighting

[Bl80]

With the heat, I'd like to purchase LED lighting at least for my big tank. (140 g 5 foot mbuna tank). It's about $200 I don't really have, but just tossing around the idea. Any thoughts on this? Or other ideas on keeping tank temps down? My 140 and 90 seem to be the worst, the 55 is against a chimney wall n is still warmer but not as bad. I've cut down light time already. I've always had central air, so this is diff for me as well... Ugh. Thx 

A desk fan would work, over the top. It will increase evaporation, and lower tank temps.

If you don't have plants, you can go pretty cheap, but over a 140 planted, it's going to get expensive pretty quick. You'll need something like.. 50-60 leds (guesswork here) 4-5ish drivers, some sort of heatsink/aluminum plate and misc like wires, solder, heatshrink, plugs etc.
