I use various types of fluorescent on all my tanks.

So what is your budget for a new light? And what do you keep in your tank? Any live plants or just animals only?
One option is to use screw in fluorescent lamps instead of an incandescent lamp. However it might be a bit of a tight squeeze and sometimes it is hard to find nice aquarium complimentary lamps in that form factor (in other words, you can find lots of cool white and warm whites which may not look good over the tank).
If you do go with a new light, next decision is do you want to stick with a full hood? Or do you want to switch over to a glass cover with a strip light on top? Or you can hang a light over the tank or get one that sits up on the tank with some sort of legs. In those last two cases you can then run the tank open if you wanted, but only if you don't have jumping fish.
