Lionfish
Official Question Material
Prep: 30-40 Seconds
A lionfish can expand its stomach more than 30 times in volume when eating a large meal. It's also capable of long term fasting, and can go without food for more than 12 weeks without dying. It doesn't help matters that lionfish start reproducing when they are less than 1 year old and can lay up to 30,000 eggs every four days, and have very few natural predators.
