I was really just wondering about the size part my tank is 6'x18"x2' they care sheet said 6x2x2 but I was just wondering if it would be possible to keep a jardini?
Is my tank good for jardinis?

Idk I keep mine in a 7x18x18 his about 50-60CM (2Ftish) can turn fine, I dont believe his a normally jardini much as he only really swims to kill a goldfish for dinner otherwise he enjoys just sitting there and every now and then will take a nice little swim he can turn around fine also, his been a 6x2x2 and I find he seems to be enjoying the 7X18 much more, id say you would be alright but I think the majority will say no.
Tank size isn't about turning around space. IMO a jardini should be kept in no less then a 72x30x24" tank.
As a general rule arowana should be provided with a tank length that is at least 3x their own length and a tank depth/width that is equal to the arowana's length. So by that a 72x24x24" would be minumum for a 24" jardini.

ah well his happy in it like I said though he dose not swim much, hardly swam in the 6x2x2 when growing up, he also has a special bunch of feeder fish he refuses to eat lol.
