Stainless Steel bowl from IKEA ($7) makes a great pendant shell :)

Is that a double ended MH bulb being used?  I thought they needed to a filter (piece of glass) with them to filter out harmful UV light.

I like the idea, but caution against using unfiltered double ended MH bulbs...

Jon may not see this recent question, since he doesn't visit here often, but by the brightness of the pic it looks like a 150, possibly a 175 but unlikely a 250W MH. Also, wouldn't want or need anything brighter over that tank.
