My sister hates all fish and says its because they eat s hit the floats about in the sea I said thats not true they eat little pieces of plankton and other tiny food sources that float about down there. Who is right?

Answer 1

fish food

Answer 2

some fish are bottom feeders, so yes they eat poo.

Fish do eat plankton but i think majority eat other fish that are smaller than them.

as for haddock-- they eat crabs, sea urchins, worms, and clams and rarely eat other fish

cod- eat other cods, haddock, crabs, lobsters, mussels, worms, mackerel, etc

Answer 3

You are more correct.  Fish eat plants and smaller marine life (i.e. krill), they pick on the remains of their unlucky friends.  Tell your sister to research eating habits of all animals- they generally don't distinguish between p**p and non p**p!  Pigs are the dirtiest and bacon tastes delicious!

Answer 4

they eat smaller fishes

Answer 5

planktons, algae, sea weeds, commercial feeds, insects, worms and fishes smaller than them
