Hey all, I'm maining a front player but can also play middle. So what size tank do you recommend you get? The guy I bought my Spyder Electra off of said that he recommended a 16Oz tank for it...

so what do y'all think? Is he right?

Thanks (I have a 16Oz tank cover so getting one isn't a prob)

If you want it on Co2, you might as well get 20oz. If you ever have to pay for a fill, you will pay less often as it has more shots per tank.

However Co2 isn't great and a £85.00 screw air system like the Pure Energy 0.8ltr 3000psi is great.

BIGGER IS BETTER!!!! well thats my school of thought of anyway, as long as you can wield your marker well enough with the larger tank go for it,

i got a 12oz CO2 tank with my Spyder and its pathetic, i run out of gas after an afternoon, i'm either gonna get a 20oz or a HPA tank maybe a 16oz depends how frisky i'm feeling :D lol,

if you've got a 16oz tank cover then go for that also if u can be nimble enough with a 20oz tank then go for that its your call
Hope i helped a little

20 oz is the only option on CO2, but if you are playing Tourneys all the time, then get a cheap preset air system. Costing between £80 and less than £200 you get a more stable propellant and this system just replaces you CO2 bottle, no other parts to buy.
