Rays do require optimal, optimal water condition as I have found with these intriguing creatures in my experiences.
I would not add any decorations as regular 180 (6 x 2 x 2) is not that big for some of large rays to roam about freely w/o obstacles.
Think about the types of food need to be fed for whatever species intended to keep.
It can be costly as I have not found any rays to take dried food readily and sustain health just on dried foods. Most f/w rays will go nuts on black/tubifex worm but try avoiding tibifex unless cultured by you..
You also need to do some research on each species toxins/antidotes in case you get stung by them. Unlikely but possible as many are stung by lion fish, or even get bitten by large (6') morays and such mishap can deliver toxins produced by bacteria carried by rmorays.
As you know, rays are bottom dwellers so adding few top dweller will also work well such as Australian Arowana, etc, etc.
Good Luck with new Venture!
