As you have a 10 and 20 mm, this poses a bit of a dilemma about which focal lengths. Personally I'd suggest something around 6-7mm and another around 30-40mm, preferably in a 2" barrel if the focusser can take 2" eyepieces. If the focusser is 1.25" only, 30mm will be the practical lowest power.

What's your scope f/ratio, and can the focusser take a 2" eyepiece barrel ?
I'm curious as to why 30mm will be the lowest practical power for a 1.25" focusser? Is it limited because of the size of his scope also or just the fact it's 1.25"?
