Default Fluorescent shop light.....T8 vs T12....interchangeable?

Bought a shop light, two bulb T8 for garden seedlings (indoors, of
course). The clerk told me that T12 bulbs will fit it, so I bought
them. It was an old guy and I figured he might know more than the
package instructions disclosed.....haven't opened the packaging yet, and
I suspect I should go back and get T8 bulbs. I don't know the
peculiarities of fluorescent bulbs/fixtures. Can I use the bulbs or do
I exchange them for T8?
