Usually If you're fish is really hungry it will have nothing else but its companion(s) in the tank. My fish ate my guppy's fins and he died soon after
Why Do Fish Eat Each Other?
Some of the fishes are carnivorous or hunters by nature and hence attack other fish. There is another category of fishes called the scavengers, who feast only on the dead and remains of other living water bodies. Some fishes feed both on plants as well as other fishes.
You have four different types of fish. Herbivores eat only plant matter, carnivores eat meat matter, omnivores eat both meat and plant matter, and scavengers eat anything that is left from every other fishes scraps. Just like creatures on land, some eat plant and seed matter like cows, horses and birds. Some eat meat like wolves, bears and predatory birds like hawks and eagles.
Because if one fish sees a fish that is smaller than him he will will try to eat it that is what you call the food chane
