Default Best T5 lighting for Exo Terra

Hi all.

Looking for suggestions. I am using a large exo terra, kitted out for dartfrogs, but the exo terra hoods dont give out enough light (the plants are starting to wilt)

I want to add some T5 lighting as i KNOW that does wonders. Any suggestions as to which ones?

I have used the arcadia twin T5 before but thats costs loads :P

Cheers

Gary

I just bought tubes, end caps, and an electronic twin ballast from my local electrical wholesaler, it was all pretty cheap. IIRC the ballast was about £24 and that was the most expensive bit, with two tubes and a pack of end caps and some wire the whole lot was about £40 I think.
