Update shots...going to try and get a feeding video soon as well as an accurate measurement of her size
she is already larger than the average sculpin around here.

lol yeah she is so lazy...she refuses to eat full grown fish but will pick of small guppies like 1/4 inch..but that is about it..and they dont run away.

she might get bigger...average prickly around here is about 5 inches...but they can reach up to 11 mostly in marine conditions (they can switch back and forth)
but its not documented how large they can get in captivity in fresh, so I think she will get bigger but not sure how much.

I would love it soooo much if she made it to 11 inches!
