Man, I had the same idea with my old coralife fixture before I dunked it. I was going to use the bulb clamps and remote wire the bulbs into the reflector. I think it should work if you mount them closer to the bottom ends of the hood. PC bulbs can handle a fair bit of heat IMO, but I would also get a small fan to blow into the fixture for heat dissapation. A fan would be a good idea either way.
