You can use standard incandescent general purpose bulbs...like the ones in your house (lamps, ceiling fans, etc.). You can get everyhting you need (socket, bulbs, etc) at Home Depot or Lowe's.

You can also throw a red one in there for night time viewing or recon work to find that bastard that's been eating your $$$ corals. It's so cheap...why not? I used to use a flashlight 'moonbeam' I had in the Marines with a red lens but why bother when you can throw a red bulb in the hood for a couple bucks....

I use a $2 socket and $2 GE 25w blue party bulb. Purchased them both at WalMart. In the pics below you can see how simple of a fixture it is. Been there for 2+ years now.
