A 5lb tank should be fine, unless you just desire a bigger tank. A full 5lb tank will push 8 - 10 1/2 barrels before needed a refill. Mine is just about to go empty for the first time and I have been using it for over a year. Depending on how fast you go through kegs will help determine how often you will need a refill. Economically I have heard that a 10lb refill of Co2 is cheaper than a 5lb, but I can imagine the cost of the tank might outweigh the savings for a while.
I get my tank filled at a welding supply, $15 for a 5lb tank fill.
