Please take some time to review recent threads. Gold nuggets do not grow much from their wild capture size.
Although its generally the consensus they don't grow much in captivity, I know of a specimen that was imported 12+ years ago, which grow from a few inches to 10"-12". I think they often don't get enough food in captivity however and grow very slowy, if at all, as a result. In the wild they graze (and crap) almost constantly according to the literature I've read.
