I would do the 3/4" pipe for a couple reasons. One, the smaller the diameter of the piping, the higher the pressure. This can be detrimental to a linear or diaphragm air pump. Two, the wall thickness is increased on 3/4" pipe so there is more 'meat' for tapping and installing the valves.
Also check the literature that came with the Alita AL-60 to see if there is a recommendation for the main airline size.
Some other important things to keep in mind:
It is preferred to have a main header line run around the ceiling of the room in a loop so there are no dead ends.
Tee off the main header line and pipe down to each individual tier/shelf level and then back up to the main header line.
Install at least 2 air valves for each tank. This allows you to add additional filters to each tank or for any additional air operated devices you may decide to add in the future. It's much easier to add the valves now then to shut the system down for future upgrades.
Install the air pump as high up the wall as you can. Use flexible hose to connect the pump to your PVC piping to reduce vibration and noise.
Plan the air distribution plan carefully before installing the tanks. I set my racks in position first after installing the main header line at the ceiling and then cut in the drop tees and ran the tier/shelf runs and attached them directly to the rack uprights using electrical conduit plastic clamps. I did drill, tap and install the valves prior to installing the tier/shelf runs. I used NO PVC cement on any of the PVC connections, just a rubber mallet to make sure the PVC was snug.
I also recommend getting a PVC pipe cutter. It's much easier and cleaner then cutting pipe with a hand saw though an electric chop saw works well.
Are you planning on drilling any of the tanks for an automatic water change or drip system?
