Is there a better/cheaper ready-made T-5 fixture out there than this one?

Also, what does the cost look like for a DIY with similar lighting quality?

Where can I get the parts for cheap to do a DIY?

That's about as cheap as it gets. Quality lighting costs a fair amount of money, but it's worth it in the end.

For DIY parts turn to www.reefgeek.com and www.ballastwise.com.

I was actually pretty surprised with how cheap a 36" fixture was! So are you saying this is "quality" lighting?

P.S.
Thanks again for the moss, it's looking GOOD

Well, the nova extremes are decent quality for what you pay. The Teks are the best, but they're very pricey for sure.
