That's probably where I'll end up, but we'll see.

With this additional piece of data, I would move to a very strong recommendation for steel tanks, as you suggest you are considering. I suspect that, without any added weight, AND a SS BP, you would still be slightly positive. I say this as a diver whose absolute favorite set of tanks is double AL80s. I dove a set of double steel (HP) 120s this weekend in salt water, with an AL 80 and a AL40 as deco bottles. It was a challenge. I cannot imagine how much of a challenge it would have been with my AL80s.I have decided to purchase a White's Fusion dry suit so steel shouldn't be a problem if I go that route, thanks all.
Do you all prefer Aluminum or Steel for this, have not dove doubles yet but want to learn soon, was wondering what is best for diving in Florida water ocean dives in a 3 to 5mm wetsuit, thanks.
