Things I've noticed about cfl's is as they are low heat but its a dry heat putting them close to canapy they tends to dry the air directly below them. With a fan blowing the humid air away from the plant it dry's the plant out it's kinda like wind burn the plant never gets the chance to absorb the moisture. My suggestions is to move the fan alittle farther away or turn it down and move light up 1". I also noticed your temp sensor is sitting below the pot I would definitly put that sitting on the edge of the pot i bet the temp up there is a good 2 or 3 degree's warmer than on the floor. Notice you leaf curling is mainly at the top of the plant closest to light?
