What's the appropriate tip when the dive op picks you up and stores your equipment? I know the usual is $5 per tank, so would $10 per tank be appropriate??

My usual is $10 per tank. Or 10-15% of the entire trip cost.
If I get along with the crew it's 15%, if I really enjoyed the trip in part because of the crew I tip 20% or more.
If the crew just got me from point A-B with little to no interaction it's usually 5-10%.
Working part time at a dive op has really opened my eyes. Tip something. I don't get paid sh!t ($50 a weekend), I have a 2 hour drive plus food for the weekend. I work my butt off to make the experience a good one.
To get a tip is a good thing.
