Greetings!

Does anyone use full spectrum 36" T-8 bulbs? Would you mind looking at the
serial number at the ends for me? I'm having a devil of a time finding 36"
T-8 bulbs in anything but "cool white." I can order them from a local
electrical supply store cheaper than special ordering them from the local
pet store. Any other suggestions for bulbs of this length and type are
welcome!

Look for 5000-5500K for 'neutral white' which 'replicates the
sunlight'. Cool white usually refers to 4500K which is more yellow
than white though the 5000K are still somewhat yellow - unsure how
good 5500K look but I expect better than 5000K going from 4500 to
5000.
