what do i need to use an arcadia t5 12% desert uvb

[mafoo]

so far ive decided im going to be getting an arcadia 22" bulb, and i think this fixture is good: http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-GrowBright-2-Foot-Single-Lamp-T5-Light.asp now is there anything else i need for it? i want to keep this as simple and the least costly as possibly and since i live in canada i dont wanna pay to much for shipping so itd be nice if i could get the fixture and whatever else i need at 1 place. kind of confused on what i need cause i read about needing a starter for it which i have no clue about

That's the cheapest T5 fixture I have seen, I've been looking too. I saved it to my favorties. Hopefully someone that knows about lighting fixtures will chime in to make sure it will work fine.

Hello,

That does specify it is a HO or High Output T5 light fixture, so I would think it should be compatible with the Arcadia T5 tube bulb. That is a great price, I agree. It is a 22 inch though, so it may not be the correct length if it is a two foot fixture.
Where are you ordering your Arcadia bulb from?

ill be buying my bulb from lightyourreptiles.com is there anything i need besides the fixture and the bulb? id also like to know if that actualy is the right fixture since now you got me wondering. ill keep looking and since im in Canada im crossing my fingers i can find one close by since ordering from the u.s. is kinda pricey for me with shipping. if anyone knows anything about this let me know since my beardie needs a new bulb since now i know that exo terra ones are bad. anywase what do you guys think is better, using the exo terra bulb or just not using one at all?
