will changing my stock bulb to a 12'' 8watt coralife bulb help at all or is it just a waste of money? right now i just have a regular bulb from the hardware store. will the coralife help at all?

its only a 5ga, I figured for 10 bucks its better then the lightbulb I have now, im looking into a 10ga tank but if i keep the 5 im going to upgrade the lighting to 26watt with moonlight, but that will be a few weeks or more
