Can regular, full spectrum florescent bulbs grow aquarium plants?

If not, what is the difference(other than the obvious shape difference.)
Oh yes, I mean the kind of bulbs you would put in a lamp fixture, not a special aquarium bulb.

Yes, they can.

The only problem is that the light they produce encourages Algae Growth more then the bulbs you get at an Aquatic Store (since they tend to use yellow light).

This is the reason why Bulbs are produced that use different area’s of the light spectrum.. the only problem with these is that they tend to cost 3-5 times more then your typical kitchen bulb.

The other reason why reason why these bulbs are no good is down to the fact they make the tank look bloody awful.
