A friend is looking into an Aqueon 15 Gallon Column Tank. Due to it being very tall and the stock lighting not being great (according to everyone I've talked to), she wants to upgrade the lighting. Shell be growing low to medium light plants, but doesn't want to chance them not getting enough light.
She would prefer to just change out the bulbs. We have very limited handiness when it comes to tools and DIY stuff, and she doesn't want to risk ruining the lights or causing a safety hazard.
As my google searches have been largely unhelpful, I was hoping for some suggestions on how to go about modifying the lights? If replacing a bulb won't work, she wanted to get your take on this DIY method. Will these lights be good enough?

All suggestions would be much appreciated.
