I've seen regular plant lights work good (purchased as you local plant store)... I am using a replacement bulb ($14) from my LFS for my "stock" hood lamp... It is working GREAT...

See my pics in the gallery...

Check out hellolights.com , depending on the size of your fuge, you can get a 13W 50/50 retro fit kit for about 27 shipped. They also have some larger kits.

I think you would at least want to have a flourscent that reccomended it for plants. The best lamp would probally be a 50/50 in my opinion.
