Dear Elsa Amilhat,
The follwing paper gives dimensions of both water channels and blood channels in fish gills as a function of size, principally in sea bass. I have found it very useful.
Langille, B.L., Stevens, E.D., and Antantaraman, A. Cardiovascular and respiratory flow dynamics. In: Fish Biodynamics, edited by Webb, P.W. and Weihs, D.New York:Praeger Publishers, 1983,p. 92-139.
Best Wishes, Ian
