Get air from outside and run your lights at night.
Sounds to me the only way you are going to cool that down is to cool the intake or port an ac in there.

just get small fan and point directly on bulb and check temps again after a shift of light to see!!

I ran a 600 and a 430 in a 6x6 and I could not get the heat down now I just run one 600.Ive ran 2 -430s all summer due to heat.I use a stand alone 7000 BTU Ac unit with a 6 inch vortex pulling oder and heat out the room I also have a 4 inch in line TD series fan to pull heat off my bulb.I also pull cool air in with a small 4inch duct fan
