Finding a reflector will be tough for that bulb. I've heard that the spiral bulbs are inefficient for aquarium lighting due to lots of re-strike. Anyone ever try to peice together a DIY reflector/hood with these bulbs?
 
It seems over on RC most people use them as pendents.. they use standard medal flood light reflectors hung up pendent style. I would think that horrizontal or tilted slightly would help with these, maybe a wing type reflector, like the ones they make for MH lighting.
