There are so high intensity flourescents but you have to replace the ballast also. If bulbs are ok, is there room for another set to be wired into the hood? You could try lining your reflector aluminum foil, bright side out, if yours is white. Or install a H.I.D. system like they use for coral (just don't cook your fish) Also stock up on algaecide Dr Joe .
