My tank is 36x36x27 tall need help deciding what type of light to get . I really want leds but dont see many last long term but i am new at this. Pics will be nice as well  of your tanks .
It is a mixed reef sps lps chalices zoas
 
I have 2 24" Photons from Reffbreeders on my 4'x3'x27". I think they would work perfectly for your cube.
 
I have an ATI led/t5 powermodule. It's awesome. Had radion pros but really like the led/t5 combo. They sale a 24" 1x75w led and 8x24w t5 that will be perfect for your tank
 
You would most likely need 2 led fixtures if you were going ai or radion route maybe you can get away with using 1 with careful aquascaping and coral placement. It can definitely get pricey though

Why not 1 metal halide pendant reflector. You probably can get mh set up for less than $200
