Haven't done a dive in 3 mil. In salt water with my shorty I need 18 pounds. Body suit only I need 10-12, can't recall which. My angle is ever so slightly torso (head) up--not enough to consider weights on the tank strap. My legs are like rocks and fins very negative. I do think about all that weight if doing a 100' dive--one reason I don't do anything but these very shallow dives solo. On those dives I am able to swim up with BC empty (if it is in fact empty, as discussed).
