Food and feeding Habits of fishes

Open in App
Solution

Dear Student

There are four basic eating groups among fish: carnivores, herbivores, omnivores and limnivores.

Carnivores are meat-eating fish. They feed on earthworms, red worms, etc.

Herbivorous fish are those that will eat only plants.

Omnivore fish will eat almost everything.

Limnivores are also known as mud-eaters. Limnivore fish feed mainly on algae and on the microorganisms.
