What kind of light should i get for the c24?
should i get a 400w hps cooled tubed? or is that too much for a little cabinet
  Or would a 250w hps cooled tube be enough for that cabinet?

A 400 is ideal for a c-24, thats what I use. A cool tube is a must.
Good luck. Seed |

Drill 150-200 3/16 holes in the bottom for the intake.Lay some window screen over the entire bottom, this keeps most bugs out. This creates a more natural 'breeze' that will filter up thru the plants foliage, keeping them slightly moving. You need at least a 170 cfm inline fan to cool, push/pull thru a filter.
Hope this helps, Seed |

At least a 250 watt HPS, if you got the cash then go with the 400.

That fan will be sufficient.....and not 1 hole....150-200 baby holes spread out over the entire bottom.
