That is a bit of a scary way to set up lights.

My fixture is just a standard light that came with the tank, but I want to gut out the existing flourecent tube so I can keep the tank looking clean. No oversized fixture hanging off the top. Its a 33 gallon. I am open to different lights but I have some spare bulbs that I can use for the set up, thats why I was looking to use my PCs.

Is this to keep corals alive, or just for a brighter looking tank?

Gutting the typical strip light does not usually give enough room to upgrade, but it depends.

Post some pictures of your existing hood so we can give some better advise.
