    Hi all, I have an older Coralife T5 fixture it is 48" and has the 4 CF Bulbs (2 White, 2 Blue) and Led Moon Lights. Does anyone know the size bulb this takes or how I can find out? My guess is 21", but just want to be sure. Thx

    All you need to do is make sure order with same pin configuration and either 65W or 55W bulbs. The fixture will handle 21" or 22" bulbs just fine.

    thanks for the help. Looks like they are the original 65 watt bulbs.

    it sounds like you have the same coralife t5 fixture that I have. My 21inch actinic bulb just burnt out and both 21 and 22inches fit them. You could always take a tape measure and measure it. :D
