Apex or some other controls?

Moving from my 29 gallon nano cube to a 120 gallon that should be here this week. Got most of the stuff taken care of but haven't bought lighting or powerheads yet. Planning on going with Kessil A360w's and Tunze Turbelle's.

I am thinking about controlling everything with a Neptune Apex but want to see what people's thoughts are. Am I best to go with the Apex or am I better off using something like the Tunze 7096 for the power heads and something else to control the lighting? Also I have no idea if there is something simpler for the lighting that can do a sunrise/sunset program.
 
I hear apex is a really good controller I went with the reef angel. They seem to be the two best controllers. Depending on if you want to be able to completely customize it yourself or not is the difference. RA us an open source controller that you can create your own codes to make it do what you want. I don't know how the kessils work as far as a sunrise/set, not sure there dimmable like that. The RA has a cable to hook it up to the controller though so if it is dimmable you would be able to do it with the RA.
