Anyone know what kind of lightbulb this is?

I leave a ceiling lamp in my kitchen on at night just to be able to walk around when the lights are off if I need to see. I have done this since I moved into my place almost 2 years ago and today they finally started going out. They flickered for a few minutes and then went out finally. I took the cover off the lamp and found 2 cathode type lights. Tried searching around for somewhere online to get them but have no idea what I am even searching for.

Yep.
I have two fixtures that use those. I buy replacements at Home Depot for about $5.00.

I use a couple of 13w CFLs for a 6 gallon nano reef I had setup about 7-8 years ago.

Its amazing how much random knowledge you accumulate from the aquarium hobby.
