I can only tell you what I've put in my latest tank and I'm tickled to death with it. Radion XR30. They are admitingly being run by by my apex, but I gotta tell you, the storm function (just to name a few) is killer.
I've got a cheap set of LED's over on my Discus tank (don't like too much light), they come with a remote control, so by definition are programmable... they don't touch the things this other system can do.
These things upgrade and change every day, I'm sure others will chime in on some other cool options. Good luck!
