hey dude. im using the 250w versions of your lights so maybe i can offer some help..
the first thing that you can do to help with heat is flatten out the refector. it should be easy to bend and having it cupped around the plant like that is also cupping heat around the plant. if you cant shift that heat with the fan then itll eventually burn. remember heat always tries to rise... if you bend that reflector back, a little way the opposite to how it was. then it will allow alot more heat to rise above the level of the plant - which is a good thing until you can get some extraction or something going..
will flattening the reflector out help you get the fan hitting the plant too? you really need the air from the fan directly on the plant.
heres the good news..
ive got my 250w about 1 inch from the top of my plants

with a little tweaking you should definately be able to do the same with 125.
good luck.
