Solar Panel Help

Hello,

im helping a friend with making a water pump and making it solar powered. The pump is like to make a waterfall type thing so the solar water pump kits online dont work. I have the solar panel(20vDC 2amps or something similar) and the motor needs 12vAC 1.8amp. Will i be able to power it if i just connect leads? or will i have to get a DC to AC inverter/converter? Anyone have any good ideas?

thankss
