Nope just the 72 watts of PC lighting under the hood. Each bulb has 4 wires to them required to run the light. The bulbs are a 4 pin bulb.

Thanks   This tank is doing awesome! Very very very happy with it!
The guy was trying to sell me a hole saw to do the job but since i knew i was going to have the fan on to like i have it i really didnt care that the hole wasnt that round. Plus that was free hand drawn 
I also wanted to get a rotary tool which you see in one of the pics that is new from today  here is the thread i started for it also.

Yes the power cord comes with different color wires than what you would expect to get   The green is ground as you can see it going back to the ballast. As for the other two the blue goes to the black and the brown goes to the white.
