Most pet stores sell T8 bulbs for aquariums but worst case a T12 should work with a T8 ballast and the sockets are the same. I think a little upgrade would be wise, a dual T5 kit should be pretty inexpensive which will allow for most things and better color. Can't imagine a single T8 or T12 working well at all.
