No i wouldn't of thought so they will be a different spectrum. Why not just buy the proper ones that way you'll be safe ? |

what spectrum do thay have to be

Whites should be between 6500K and 14,000K ideally. Higher will look more bluey white, lower more pinkish, household tubes from B&Q will just encourage nuisance algae... stop being a cheapskate and buy some Interpet TRI-PLUS or POWERGLO tubes...  |

Lamps from a pet shop is where to go! |
