    It's not complete until it's plumbed to the system and there's pictures on 3reef to prove it!

    Just get a cheap metal cone reflector light. The ones you commonly seen used for heat. Put the highest wattage spiral grow bulb in it and you will be good.

    go to home depot and get the cheap clip on light in the electrical isle, its usually about $5.50 and then go over to the light bulb area and get a compact florescent flood light. Get the highest wattage they have, I think its 26 watts and get the "daylight" color.. Its what I have and a lot of others, it really grows plants well..
