Test tank for plant propagation
They sell those lamps for raising poultry and all sorts of stuff. Some of them are built a lot more heavily than others. On many of the lights that have a clip, you can take the clip off and use them as a hanging light too.

Starting over
If you've got a clay subsoil underneath your yard, that's probably the best bottom layer. The microscopic particle size of the clay (and not too much organic matter) is probably one of the things that make it work. That's a common thing with the kitt...

OT: school visit with 50+ kindergardeners
We wouldn't have the cuddle factor with most fish, so we'd have to go with a different theme. It would be a lot of fun, though.
