Hi welcome to mfk. Have u ever had a tank before? What size? What fish? What is the size of the place the tank has to go? What type of fishing do u want? Is there a budget u are trying to follow? There is a lot of questions to be answered before u buy a setup.

If you can answer the second post it would be helpful for others in sharing their inputs and experiences 
Have u ever had a tank before? Yes I have a 29 gallon...... What fish? jack dempseys and tiger barbs severums and two cat..... What is the size of the place the tank has to go? 3 foot section in my kitchen..... What type of fishing do u want? semi to full aggressive birchirs, cats that stay small, Is there a budget u are trying to follow? trying to stay under 300 for the initial setup minus cost of fish
Hmm 3 feet isnt a very good space for a bichir tank, id reccomend starting em in a 55 unless you get babies, they can be grown out in the 30. Id try to get at least a 4 foot space for it if you want bichirs long term
