Newbie Wanting Some Advise

[Sarah5098]

I have recently bought a second hand tank, that i am just about to start cycling. However, it doesnt have a light, just a reflector and the space where a light should be. Any advise on how to set up a light, and what i need for it?
Thanks
Sarah

Hi Sarah, you will need a ballast with starter and a bulb of your choice depending on whether or not you intend to use real plants.

Something like THIS

Hope this helps.

Thats fab thanks, and alot cheaper than i was expecting Though this whole set up cost is really hurting my wallet.
Thanks for the advise
