For that fixture, I recommend Sylvania, 23 watt, daylight, "now smaller than ever", spiral fluorescent bulbs. They fit well and won't stick down into a really full tank.

I have another tank hood that has different guards that are getting on my nerves. You have to keep the gauards on or the bulb part will fall into the water and all i can fit in there are these small skinny ones that arent doing very good.
