Coralife Bulbs

[Mza36]

right now my light setup is the coralife colormax/6700k. i have read that these lights are not optimal for plant growth(which i thought they were when i bought them.. D however its no big deal as these bulbs have been sitting in storage 1 1/2 years. they still work fine, but i am in need of affordable bulbs that will productive in plant growth.

My lights were part of a coralife housing/mount or whatever so i am wondering if any brand bulbs of similar size and wattage will fit and if anyone could recommend some bulbs, coralife or other possibilites, that are compatible with multiple systems.

thanks
