6 volt battery for bait and 12 volt for fish finder. Just installed my fish finder and purchased hobie battery kit. If you have a hobie, pretty convenient and easy to wire up. I used heat shrink on connections.

It depends on the fish finder you have the larger screens eat up the battery and it means 12v and a minimum of 10AH for just the fish finder. A separate battery for the bait tank, usually 6v is better so the pump runs slower and do not make the bait have to swim too much against the flow.
