No friends who are electricians. So one of these - would they not complete the circuit - does anyone know?

It may well be a specialist bulb, but there are plenty of other bulb units that only connect on one end. Having spent a lot of money on two new bulbs, I would prefer if it I could use them. I've seen just a blank end you can plug a T8 into (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07DHB63HY/?tag=) but...

Help! I just bought two replacement bulbs for my tank but it only has a connection one end. The bulbs I bought have two prongs on both ends and will not work when connected to the only connection I have. Is there something I can get to 'plug' the other end and complete the circuit or are...

Just wondering what's best to do now. Unfortunately my heater shattered and I didnt notice the temperature went up to over 90 and all the fish are dead. I'm really upset, it was a big tank and I hate to think about what they must have gone through. I'm looking for advice now on how to move...
