I'm wanting to build a display, that will need 6 - 18" T5 fluorescent bulbs spaced about 7 inches apart. I've looked up how to wire fluorescent bulbs, but can't find anything that tells me how to wire more than 2. I'm a real beginner on wiring, so I know I need to know quite a bit.

What gage wiring?
How many ballasts, starters?
In series, parallel?

Any help would be deeply appreciated.
