Aquarium with adjustable lighting

1. An aquarium for displaying a fluorescent fish under an external lighting condition, the term “fluorescent” as used herein means the emission of light at an emission wavelength resulting from the absorption of an excitation light at an excitation wavelength lower than the emission wavelength, the aquarium comprising:

a tank;

a plurality of light sources comprising at least two light sources configured to emit light of different wavelengths from each other, selected from the group consisting of: (a) a first light source configured to emit light at a first wavelength spectrum having a first maximum peak emission wavelength which enhances the display of a fluorescent fish within said tank under a bright external lighting condition; (b) a second light source configured to emit light at a second wavelength spectrum having a second maximum peak emission wavelength different from said first maximum peak emission wavelength which enhances the display of the fluorescent fish within said tank under a moderate external lighting condition; and (c) a third light source configured to emit light at a third wavelength spectrum having a maximum peak emission wavelength different from said first and second maximum peak emission wavelengths which enhances the display of the fluorescent fish within said tank under a dark external lighting condition,

at least one electronic control operably coupled to each of said plurality of light sources for controlling the operation of said plurality of light sources to turn on/off said plurality of light sources.

2. The aquarium of claim 1 , wherein said electronic control is configured to automatically control said plurality of light sources based on said external lighting condition.

3. The aquarium of claim 1 , wherein said electronic control further comprises a light sensor for detecting said external lighting condition and said electronic control automatically controls said plurality of light sources based at least in part on a reading from said light sensor.

4. The aquarium of claim 1 , wherein each light source of said plurality of light sources comprises an array of LEDs.

5. The aquarium of claim 1 , wherein said electronic control is configured for selectively turning on/off each light source of said plurality of light sources independently of the other light sources.

6. The aquarium of claim 1 , further comprising a transgenic, fluorescent ornamental fish.

7. The aquarium of claim 1 , further comprising one or more aquarium features selected from the group consisting of gravel, water conditioner, plants, filter, aeration system, food, curios, rocks, or ornamental features.

8. The aquarium of claim 7 , wherein the one or more aquarium features are fluorescent.

9. The aquarium of claim 1 , wherein said electronic control is set based on pre-determined chronological parameters, including both absolute time and relative time.

10. An aquarium kit adapted to be assembled for displaying a fluorescent fish under an external lighting condition, the term “fluorescent” as used herein means the emission of light at an emission wavelength resulting from the absorption of an excitation light at an excitation wavelength lower than the emission wavelength, the aquarium kit comprising:

a tank;

a plurality of light sources comprising at least two light sources configured to emit light of different wavelengths from each other, selected from the group consisting of: (a) a first light source configured to emit light at a first wavelength spectrum having a first maximum peak emission wavelength which enhances the display of a fluorescent fish within said tank under a bright external lighting condition; (b) a second light source configured to emit light at a second wavelength spectrum having a second maximum peak emission wavelength different from said first maximum peak emission wavelength which enhances the display of the fluorescent fish within said tank under a moderate external lighting condition; and (c) a third light source configured to emit light at a third wavelength spectrum having a maximum peak emission wavelength different from said first and second maximum peak emission wavelengths which enhances the display of the fluorescent fish within said tank under a dark external lighting condition,

at least one electronic control operably coupled to each of said plurality of light sources for controlling the operation of said plurality of light sources to turn on/off said plurality of light sources.

11. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , wherein said electronic control is configured to automatically control said plurality of light sources based on said external lighting condition.

12. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , wherein said electronic control further comprises a light sensor for detecting said external lighting condition and said electronic control automatically controls said plurality of light sources based at least in part on a reading from said light sensor.

13. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , wherein said plurality of light sources are each an array of LEDs.

14. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , wherein said electronic control is configured for selectively turning on/off said plurality of light sources independently of the other.

15. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , further comprising a transgenic, fluorescent ornamental fish.

16. The aquarium kit of claim 10 , further comprising one or more aquarium features selected from the group consisting of gravel, water conditioner, plants, filter, aeration system, food, curios, rocks, or ornamental features.

17. The aquarium of claim 16 , wherein the one or more aquarium features are fluorescent.

18. The aquarium of claim 10 , wherein said electronic control is set based on pre-determined chronological parameters, including both absolute time and relative time.
