You need good seeing and good collimation. First time I saw them was with an 8" f9 Newtonian but I have since seen a disc in a 4" refractor. Ganymede is relatively easy now for me. A larger aperture will give you more light but you don't need more light as the moons are bright enough, in fact higher power, less brightness but good seeing and collimation is best.
