Default Advice on starting seeds in an aquarium?

I sowed my tomatoes, peppers and a few other veggie seeds today (they are in [2] 12 cell trays) and went to put them under the shop light in the basement only to discover that the electrical outlet isn't working. There isn't any other outlet/location for shop lights in the basement that I can use.
The only thing I could think of is to use an old 10 gal. tank that I can plug in up here in the living room, but not sure how to go about it.

What to use to raise up the trays?
Do I still use a heating pad for the pepper seeds?
Can I even use a heating pad inside the aquarium?
Will I still need to use the clear plastic lids on the trays?
Is there anything I've overlooked?
This can be done, can't it?
I hope so! I don't know what I'll do with my sown seeds if it can't be done!
Thanks for any advice!
Cathy
