If I was you, I would be talking to Nick about this light. http://www.reefsupplycanada.com/par-38-reef-light/

He also has some cool goosenecks coming in shortly (I ordered one for my fuge PAR light) and together, they will give you good light at a good price.

Just my 2 cents.

I've also heard some negative feedback after checking their revies online. That Par38 does look nice. Would 1 cover a 20x18 cube tank ? Would I manually have to control the dimmer or could I get it timed to intensify throughout the day ?

Check with Reef Supply Canada...for dimming and coverage you may be far better of with one d120. Nick will give you the best advice he can.

You could probably get away with a couple par bulbs or better would be a D120 for not much more. Then you will have 120 watts at your disposal and be able to dim it up and down as you get more demanding stuff as well as being able to find a spectrum that you like by adjusting the ratio you run the white/blue channels at.
