I know Coralife makes a 10w and a 20w they are pretty good. I use the 20w in my hex 5.

The rating in the hood is for the incandescent bulbs your hood was designed to use (because they put out a lot of heat). The fluorescents should run cooler even at a slightly higher wattage. Go for the 20's next time if you want...shouldn't be a problem.
