Hi, I've been reading here for a while and now have a question. I have
a t12 25 or 40 watt shoplight fixture (48 inches) on one of mytanks, is
it true I can use t8 bulbs with it as well (I am assuming the t8 bulbs
would be required to be 48 inches long and 25 or 40 watts in power)?
Please confirm - thanks all!




T8 tubes can be used in "standard" fluorescent fittings... been using them
for decades, just swapped over to "normal" electronic ballasts for my new
tank.... with T8s !!!
