I feel bad that perhaps I took the focus off the topic What is your line up? not cost. I will start another thread for that.
What is your tank lineup?

3 HP 120 Worthington Steels
2 AL 80's
1 AL19
I purchased to 120's used within a week of each other from different divers in the area. Shortly after I found 2 80's, one for $20 and the other for $35. I wanted the 80's to dive BHB with and practice weighting between the 2 setups. I use the 120's on charters. As I did more charters, I wanted a pony.
Recently I did a 3 tank trip and took 2 120's and an 80. I don't like switching my gear configurations around on the boat (ie weights), so I found someone selling a 120 and I bought it.

OMG: out of control. For guys with more than 10 tanks. do you have a separate budget for VIP tanks?My shops in town insist on oxygen cleaning every year. Comes to about $53/year/tank.
6) HP steel 120 (4 PST/2 Worthington)
(4) HP steel 130 (1 PST/3 Worthington)
(6) HP steel 100 (2 PST/ 4 Worthington) Just added 2 more to the fleet, so updated the tally. Opportunity arose = early Christmas shopping!
(4) AL 30
(1) AL 80
(1) LP steel 108 (Faber)
(1) LP steel 85 (Faber)
(1) LP steel 76 'doubles' (Faber)
(1) LP steel 85 'doubles' (Faber)
Over 15 yrs of diving, only added an average of less than 2 tanks per year to the fleet, am I falling behind ?
