t5 lights

YES AND NO. The temperature (K) of the light is important. If you can find a cheap fixture, buy it and replace the bulbs with the correct temperature lights fo the colors you want to keep.

Certainly no "law" but if you can find tubes around 6500k in color temp should be fine.
For looks you really don't want to go into like 4000k or such.
Thing like GE star coat or any bulb that is listed at like 865...
