If you can't find anyone local for lighting, I have 24" T5 and T8 fixtures that I no longer use that I'd be willing to sell cheap.
The T8 is the standard Aqueon fixture that comes with their tanks when buying the set. I can even throw in a free full spectrum replacement bulb that I bought for it but never used.
The T5 is a DeepBlue SolarMaxHE. This is a bit more powerful than the standard T8 and it should be able to handle medium plants easily, maybe medium-high borderlines. I wouldn't try anything demanding (dwarf baby tears) though.
I also have plants, assassin snails, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails, though I'm not sure about packaging them up in the same shipping as you probably want those delivered priority instead of standard post (plus you already stated a preference for local).
