HELP! Newbie here!

Hello,
I need some help with lighting my tank. I am new to saltwater tanks. I have had mine for a few months now and its the greatest thing ever. But, I am having some trouble with lighting. I currently have an Eclipse System 12 tank and I am looking for two different kind of bulbs. The first one is to help enhance the color of the fish. I have been to a lot of different sites and cant manage to find one. The closest thing I found was here. But I don't know how well that will actually work. Also, I was wondering if I could find a light that will fit that is strong enough for an anemone or if I will have to change my whole hood. Thanks.

First of all, welcome to the boards!
Okay, first a fair warning. When the moderators see your post, they are going to remove your links. It's against forum rules to post links to retail sites, and they usually will also remove them for manufacturer sites as well. No biggie, but you may want to get the jump and edit your post and remove the links ahead of time.

Okay I was able to see your links as they are still in your post at this point. The eclipse system 12 only contains a single 9w power compact fluorescent. This light doesn't give you a whole lot of options. The lamps are pretty much only available in two flavors, daylight and actinic.
The lamp you posted to is an Actinic lamp. Actinic light is very dim compared to daylight. Actinic lamps are designed to be used along side regular lamps. The light they put out has very little light in the visible spectrum (what we can see). It's used to cause the color in corals to fluoresce. So I would NOT purchase an actinic lamp. As your only lamp, your tank will look very dark.
I'd put a plain old daylight lamp in there.
As far as light for an ameone, you are spot on, you'll need to replace your whole hood, which unfortunately with eclipse system also includes your filtration. You'd be better off replacing the whole tank. Besides, the only anemones that are small enough to fit into a tank are not very pretty and can be trouble as they pack a very powerful sting.
If you want to talk about options for a tank that can support an anemone, post as such and we'll see what we can do.
As far as coloring up your fish... light may help a little... but honestly using good quality food, using proper supplements and vitamins in your food, and maintaining good water conditions and light stocking levels will do more for your fishes color than anything you can possibly do with light. I'd look at that strategy first anyway.
