Any e27 fixture you can get one that screws into threaded pvc and rig something up or any standard fixture.

I use a OCreef reef clamp, holds the weight up Nicely. I've heard good things about the Boost LED clamp as well.

my bulb actually is an OCreef bulb but those clamps are like 50 bucks i was looking for something more on the cheaper side caz i paid 130 for the bulb alone

Find one that has an open back, these bulbs should not be enclosed, buying a cheap one will result in failure. These bulbs are heavy and will cause most of the traditional cheap desk lamps to droop and eventually fall into the tank unless you rig it up. i personally would spend the 50$ and get the piece of mind.

I used the standard circuit city/staples e27 fixture and they eventually fail.
