I have an XP3 in the mail coming to me, and so I'm trying to get ready. I need to get carbon and the media bags in preparation for setting up. Can anyone tell me if this is good, both as a deal, and as the carbon media? If not, what are some good, preferably cheap, options? I'm looking to go with Amazon if I can, since I get Prime shipping.

Second, what bags should I get? I know they can be reused, but having extras on hand never hurts.
Third, what bulbs should I get? My best option for my setup will probably be something that will reside in the deep dome fixtures from Zoomed. It's also easiest to change the bulbs and adjust the distances for burn-in and safety. So, being conscious of the eye problems some of the bulbs caused in the past (it looks like that's mostly passed now), what bulbs are best? Zoomed or ExoTerra?
