I think a 3L bag should be fine.

Also, powered type has smaller grains.

yeah, the ada site says to put a thin layer of powder type on top of the normal type for looks basically. think i'm good with a 3 liter bag of normal type.

I used a 9L bag to fill my 12g eclipse and my mini-m, so I would say a 3L would be great.
