It depends. Do you play on a commercial field where you can get refills whenever you need them or are you playing in the woods where one tank has to last you all day?

I have a 9 and 2 12s. A 12 alone can last me a day. It just depends on how much you shoot and hot much your guns uses. If you wont bebale to get refills and will be playing all day, I'd go with a 20.

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

A scuba tank full of c02 is the best (inifinite Air cheat!), but unless your nutz,
              Just go with a 20oz tank!

The response and cyclone don't use up more gas (I believe). And co2 will spit out the same amount of pressure so why the difference in "needed" sizes?

This is something that depends on how you play.  If you don't like the weight of a 20 oz bottle, go with a 9 or 12 oz, or get a remote.  Also, keep in mind that you can carry a spare 9 or 12 oz bottle in place of one of your pods, handy if you don't shoot through a mountain of paint and travel light.  Even with my A5 and Egrip set on full auto, a 12 oz will last for more than 500 shots.

Get a 20 oz and a 9 oz. Then use the 20oz as your main source and carry the 9 oz in you pocket as a backup tank incase you run out of air while shooting. Thats what I do.
