    hi, i got an Ocean Free 2-Tube Light Casing for my 1.5ft tank.

    when i wanted to change one of the tubes earlier, i realized that the extra ones that i bought were 11w (FBL brand), longer than the originals in the light casing. though without indication, i think the casing contains 9w tubes.

    can i use these 11w tubes to replace? ta!
    P-L-E-C-O-R-Y=M-A-N-I-A!!! YEAH!
    FLORENCE, capital of the region of Tuscany, has a population of around half a million inhabitants, spreads on the banks of the Arno, between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian seas, almost in the middle of the Italian peninsula. It is a city which bustles with industry and craft, commerce and culture, art and science.

    If it can fit into the casing, should be able to give it a try.

    thanks for your reply, sherwin!

    i did try to fit the 11w tube in and even switched it on (desperate cos the tank's at my mum's place which i only visit once a week, and one of the old tube was flickering), and it did come on.

    but fearing that something bad may happen later, i switched the old tube back and strangely the flickering stopped. [:0] so that means if any of the tubes blow later, i'll use the 11w one, huh? xie xie!
