Ben,
      We all use SLA (sealed lead acid) batteries in our tanks. You should 
aim for a minimum of 17 ah, that will give you 20-30 minutes. Because your 
motors are 24v you need two batteries, I would suggest going with 4, 10-12 
ah batteries linked in series parallel, this gives you 20-24 ah at 24v, and 
the setup is not much bigger then 2 17 ah batteries. Just a thought, I know 
this is what I'll be doing in my tanks.

Chris. b
