Re: Which tank to use?
Lonnie makes an important point that should not be forgotten. If you are using a thick wetsuit you might very well want to stick with aluminum tanks. Do the math: you can easily calculate the rate of compression, and therefore buoyancy loss, on a foam neoprene wetsuit (or dry suit for that matter ... but at least these provide redundant lift). The change is dramatic. Diving steel tanks, especially the heavier ones, needs to be thought out very carefully if you are wearing a heavy wetsuit. The deeper you go the more this becomes an issue.
"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being." - Johann W. von Goethe
