24 aquarium hood
What kind of bulbs I put in the light of my aquarium?

I bought a discount of 55 gallons of craigslist, and the hood that came with it has a place for 2 strips of light. I have plants in the tank and they are not doing well, I think it's because not enough lighting (fluorescent bulbs are probably old.) My question is … What kind of bulbs I buy 24 "The Perfect Light is rated at 120 volts, 60Hz and 17watts. 17 watts is the most that can go in there? And that will be good for most aquarium plants?

the only thing you can do is replace the bulbs waiting for the spectra of age and are not old. which can only add that the size (18 "bulb), because that is all his equipment complies …… so if you still have the problem that you could try to buy a new lamp that will cost you much! money (if this is what you'd like to think that he would recommend Coralife 48 "Freshwater), this is a great accessory light for plants that cost a little over $ 200 to purchace. Otherwise your just replacing light bulbs and hope that will help upgrade a spectrum to keep your plants healthy. Hope this helps
