The first number is the size of the tank, in cubic inches. A 68 ci is bigger/holds more shots than a 47ci, for example.

The second number refers to how much air a tank can hold. A 4500 psi tank holds a significant more amount of air than a 3000 psi tank of the same size: a 68/300 holds 680 shots or so, where as a 68/4500 holds well over 1000.

A small 47/300 tank is probably as good as you will get for under 100; try crossfire. Also, look around on Ebay. Steer clear of 3A tanks and names besides Centerflag, Air America, MacDev, Crossfire, WDP, and Pure Energy.

There are other good tank brands, but it's late and I can't think straight.
