Can you use flourescent bulbs for T5 light strip fixtures?

Hi, I bought a 2nd hand 48" Coralife T5 double strip. I just want to know if I can buy 2 flourescent bulbs to use it in this T5 strip.

I want to buy Hagen's Aqua Glo and Hagen's Flora Glo and use it for the T5 double strip. Can I do that? Or can you only use T5 bulbs for a T5 fixture.

Thank you.

you should only use t-5s in it, the balast is designed to push t-5s, the different bulbs have different power and amperage needs T-5s are alot nicer bulbs any how
