Was it worth $6.98?

I got some of mine for free, the rest where 2.99. Sence they are native here, I think its illegal to sell them. I dont know about there though. Great fish though! I love them. If you end up liking it then I guess 7 bucks is worth it

they're $5.50 at the store i work in. i've had my two for just about a year now. got em when they were around 2.5"-3" and now the male is only maybe 5" but the female is about 4-6times the size at a very fat 9"-10". great fish by the way. lots of fun if u have more active cats they'll usually mimic them and try to be part of the pack.

oh yeah definitely a speckled or spotted bullhead.

Yeah my little ones inside will school with the ID sharks and Paroon. The two that Ive had for a year is the same, one thats about 4-5" and the other 9" I hope they will spawn next summer.
