Black Light fixture for tube lights?

I thought of something as I was cleaing my room, I have a black light and I was wondering if i would be able to take the black light tube out and jsut put a normal light?. also I went to home depot to see what kind of tube light there are that would fit it cuz its only 18 inch tube. and there were 15w cool white, 15w warm white and 15w daylight. which one would be best? id also be using other cfls with it as 15w isnt enough any ideas?

the picture is what my black light looks like if that helps.

you could if you wanted, pretty sure your blacklight is a t8 size.

any idea as to what kind of light to use 15w cool white, 15w warm white and 15w daylight?

"Warm" light sources have a low color temperature (2000-3000K) and feature more light in the red/orange/yellow range. Light with a higher color temperature (>5000K) features more blue light and is referred to as "cool

your welcome, just make sure the light fixture
is in a spot where your plants will get light but
the light wont burn the plants.

one of the fixtures i have in my micro grow box
is from a black light and tends to get a little hot.

I added black light to my flower room. For increesed resin production.
