You want about two inches of soil. I got a medium sized bag and it was enough for a ten gallon and a 40 gallon. It's one pound of gravel per gallon to equate an inch all the way across, but that's a little different with soil because it's looser. That website says they come in ~45 pound bags. If you get one of those it should be enough.
 
Thank you for your answer.
I was able to get 2 inches of soil with two 17L bags :)
