Not saying you cant use the 20L - but from my observations, brevs, for the most part, tend to stay higher up - especially at night when they sleep. It probably makes them feel more secure when sleeping to be away from the ground. Like I said the 20L will work but I think they would be slighly happier in something taller. The 55 would be ideal for a 2.4 group.
A fixture with a single flourecent bulb is going to be fine and it will light up the tank no problem. Keep in mind that brevs tend to hang around the forest floor where there are only patches of light - so one light is all they need. Too much light without having any areas in the tank to get away from it may stress them.
I was a bit confused with the air flow part of your thread. I would think that depending on the design, the double hood would reduce air flow - and that should be avoided. Half of the top screen should be free from obstruction and I also have an oscilating fan in the reptile room to create better airflow.
