I'm gearing up for my second brew and I'm planning to get a secondary. I'm paranoid about dropping a glass carboy, so my thinking right now is to go plastic. Morebeer.com has a plastic 6 gal carboy that seems nice enough (http://morebeer.com/product.html?product_id=6531). It says I should also get a rubber hood to go with it.
Now, this is probably a dumb question but I have to ask since it's not covered in my beginner book: do I need another airlock for the secondary? If so, do I simply plunk it into the carboy hood? And what do they mean by "blowoff hoses"? Here's the URL for the hood itself: http://morebeer.com/product.html?product_id=16657
