| I have a 7l steel you can try and in the next couple of weeks I'll have an AL80 you could try.
Mark is spot on, it's best to try different tanks if you can.
My interpretation:
7l steel - nice on land, compact in the water, more negative in teh water than Ally, which means you must be dive heavy in case you have to hand off the tank. Cost: Cheap, especially second hand.
7l Ally - never used one, but as it is bigger and holds less gas than the steel, I do struggle to see the advantage
AL80 - PITA on land, huge and heavy but hangs very nicely in the water. Cost: not many secxond hand, so really looking at new - £135 - £150
Again, Mark is correct - what diving are you doing now? what diving are you planning to do in the next 2 years.
