Black Rays rock!! I love blacks.. dont have much success with Leos though
but blacks generally said to be hardy and active than most rays.
180 will last you a couple of years.. but you will eventually have to upgrade.
PH is a variable with rays.. as long as you acclimate properly, they can tolerate
a wide variety of PH.
Just keep an eye out for your Ammonia and Nitrates... ammonia must be at zero
and Nitrates must be as low as possible.. i keep mine below 40 as my tap has nitrates. .

I would suggest that you go as big as possible as early as possible; it saves you the headache of all of the upgrades later.
