It also depends on your experience level. I started with 10% of my weight in fresh water, 80c alum and a 3mm suit. Added a couple of pounds for salt water.
Now that I have a few more dives to my belt (over 200), I’m diving with 8lbs in salt water, same 3mm suit. I think I’m about 130lbs now...
Everyone is a bit different. Just start with the 10% rule and work it down as you become more comfortable.
Happy diving!
