Long Tail VS Short Tail: 

The Key Difference between long and short tail is the amount of thread available to attach to your plumbing. Another important distinction is that short tail valves do not include a backing nut and seal washer. For more information please review this post.

Selecting the right inlet size:

Selecting the right size inlet is very important to the performance of your float valve. The inlet of the float valve should match your supply plumbing. For instance if your supply plumbing is 3/4" you will get no better performance from a 1" valve. Your flow rate will always be limited by the smallest pipe. Always match your float valve inlet size to your water supply pipe size. If you intend on upgrading your water supply plumbing at some point you can always purchase a different Detach tail.
