Lighting my SGFC

I currently have two dunked and rolled cakes in my SGFC at are in my living room in my apartment.
 (don't might the water under the FC I just gave a heavy mist before I go to work 12hr shift)
Do I need to get separate lighting or will the ambient light be fine?

What is in the bottom of that, it doesn't look like perlite? Thats a pretty small SGFC
Do you have holes on all six sides, bottom and lid as well spaced evenly (2" x 2")?
I would use a CFL bulb, (is it 5600k range I forget) on 12 on 12 off.

Yeah brother its perlite lol my phone camera probably just not helping. And the SFGC is a 15 Liter tub. (16 quarts)
ok I have two lights that came with my kit one LED and one florescent that I will use. I just didn't see it used a lot in anyones tek so I thought they where BS. But I will start using as of today. (Day 1)

 I have this same hole pattern on the bottom of SGFC.
And my sides have three rows of holes. Is that not enough for FAE?

the link says holes in a grid pattern, 2" apart from each other. nothing in there about rows of holes.
You may be right, that you have the holes spaced apart correctly, I cant really tell from the pic but I see a few more holes now than I did last time I checked
