Eh... The size should be about right. But they are schooling fish, and should be kept in larger groups. A 30 gallon would be too small for a school of them.
These arent true barricudas obviously. So you wont have any problems with tankmates. Youll only have to worry about fish that are around guppy size.

Well this barracuda falls under the about 1 inch of fish per gallon rule so you should be fine. But as it says, be careful about what other fish you put in that aquarium because the barracuda could eat them.

it is true, that specific genus does only get about 5 inches long on average. i wouldn't suggest them for a 30, i suggest a 55 and a pair maybe 3 so long as it's as long tank. these fish like to dart and they will school if given enough room and friends.
