Help me, First time watercooling

Ok, Im going to buy the Corsair H50. I understand how to install it and everything. But do I have to buy a special liquid to pour into the cooler :S
How much will this cost me on a monthly basis? Or is the cooler air based

Whats a loop? Basically, Can I buy the cooler, Install it, And thats that. No more will needed to be done?

loop = watercooler loop, basically Cpu block + rad + Tubing, = the loop

water flows in the loop, from cpu block to the rad, moving the warm fluid to the rad to cool it down, to move back to the cpu block

and yes you just have to install it, thats it, simple

Ok so I wont need to buy any of those tubes? Or that liquid that goes through them?

no, because it's an all in one unit, you don't even need to assemble it

I would recommend this: http://overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-001-OP

Better buy than the H50, it's an unbranded H60 without the fan, cheaper and you get to choose your own fan. Apparently from what I read, the Corsair fans can be noisy.
