well i think Senegal Bichir need a minimum of 55 gallons as they are way to active to be in a 30 gal.......... id say a retro or a moke could live in a 30 for live they are expensive and stay smaller and arnt as active as all other upper jaw species......... no lower jaw species under 125 gallons.........
