LEDs are currently much more expensive than T5 or MH. Their prices should go down as they become more popular and widespread.

Id like to do the DIY LED route. But ive not come across a good link to buy the parts.

check out reeftech led lighting. They have some nice fixtures that even have a sunrise to sunset capability, and you can dim each color of bulb that the fixtures have.

Check these out. They will mount in an existing T5 or T8 fixture and are just coming to market. Should be a good option.
