Which tank to use?

Re: Which tank to use?
If diving a wetsuit aluminum is preferable because of loss of buoyancy at depth with suit compression.  The extra weight of the steel tank isn't ditchable without ditching the tank itself.  This is more of an issue for deeper dives in wetsuits.  If diving a drysuit then steel tanks are the better choice.  Less lead to carry and suit compression isn't an issue since your redundant lift is your drysuit.
