Oh Man, where were these websites 2 months ago when I was plumbing my setup. I went ahead and used ABS after consulting the guide from aboutsaltwater.com and an individual claiming familiarity with plumbing. The latter said that the reason they use black ABS is so that plumbers wouldn't mix potable water lines with drain/sewage lines in construction.
