Here's one I made. I used a 10 gal aquarium and some glass baffles, silicone, and; well, take a look.

One of these. Mine's a 55K, though. AKA daylight.




Here's a link to one, although I got mine at Home Depot. It's a 75 watt equivalent, but uses less than 50 watts, I think. It burns pretty cool, too.
