I just recieved my two Twin tube Light kits from Home Depot.
On the Box, it says to use two 32 watt T-8 bulbs only.
My problem is, I got a really good deal on 4 Aqua Glow bulbs at
Petsmart for $25.00 out the door.
They are 48" 40 watt bulbs and they are T-10. Not T-8
I love the Aqua Glow bulbs. I have been using them for years.
But I am concerned about using these T-10's in a T-8 fixture that
does not call for them.
Am I being over cautious? Is there any harm in using a T-10 40watt bulb
in a T-8 32 watt fixture?
Or should I return my great deal and pay $70.00 for the T-8's?
Thanks
