    Partly, it depends on the type.

    Remove the hood COMPLETELY from the tank.

    Incadesent, unscrew.

    Fluorescent, a lot easier.

    If you didn't put vaseline on the ends of florescents and threads of a fluorescent bulbs, then they could be difficult to remove.

    Incadescents may break. It may require plyers to remove the threaded portion.
