How's this bulb for an indoor ficus bonsai?

Hey, I'm new to the bonsai world. I just got a ficus bonsai yesterday. I'm trying to find some good indoor lighting for it that won't leave a hole in my pocket.

I read somewhere bonsai like 40w fluorescent lamps. I found this bulb here: http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/597470/SLI-Lighting-GLB-Spiral-4 0-Watt/?cm_mmc=Mercent-_-Google-_-Facility_Supplies-_-597470&utm_sourc e=Google&utm_medium=CPC&utm_campaign=plusbox-beta&mr:trackingCode=62F7 3C1B-EC81-DE11-B7F3-0019B9C043EB&mr:referralID=NA

Will that work ok?

Thanks!

You need to go to Jerry Meislik's website. Just Google it. He has all the info on lighting for indoor bonsai, particularly Ficus which are his specialty.
