A few key points about tank selection:
Capacity: Does this tank(s) hold enough gas for my dive plan?
Bouyancy: Can I swim this tank up if my wing fails?(steel doubles) Does it require me to carry a bunch of lead? (Aluminum tanks)
Trim: Am I having to fight this tank to stay in a horizontal position? (Long thin tanks like HP120s, or short, stubby tanks like HP80s)
If all of those can be answered positively, then the tank is a good fit for you and the dive.
Case in point: I love my Faber LP85s as singles. They trim out very well for me, have enough gas for most of my diving (shallow reefs, with the occasional mid-range wreck and reef), and I'm fairly certain I can swim them up with a failed wing. But I don't like my Genesis HP120: it's long so I have to fight it the whole dive to stay trimmed out, it's very negative so I am diving overweighted, and it's generally way too much gas for most of my diving. I generally reserve it for other people to use, so if they are a gas hog then everyone else can have a longer dive or if they need a lot of lead (bouyany body type) then they won't have to carry as much.
But tanks are really a personal preference. I typically recommend HP100s if someone is looking into getting steel tanks because they are very versatile in uses (great doubled or as singles), they trim out well enough on most people, and the 6 lbs of lead they reduce from the weight belt when they switch from an Aluminum tank creates an overall lighter rig as they still weigh about the same as an AL80. It would help, however, if you were to let us know what kind of diving you intend to pursue.
