I believe that fish are a substantial part of killifish's diets. Why else do 
we separate our young from the adults or provide hiding places and retrieve 
only a few very strong survivors? Young fish are notorious cannibals, older 
fish are a little lazier, but will still grab a mouthful of a fish, even if 
it is their own offspring. That doesn't make fish a better food, just a 
natural food.
