An omnivore is a kind of animal that eats either other animals or plants. Yes, guppies eat a variety of fish food, from flake foods to brine shrimp, microworms, blood worms etc., they will also eat their young or any other small fry. Guppies will snack on any algae they find in the tank.

Many Freshwater Fish are omnivores you should feed them, frozen fish, fish flakes, and frozen shrimp. You can also put in some live plants that you can get at petco or petsmart that the fish will feed off of.also most freshwater aquarium fish are either carnivores or herbivores.

They are omnivores. Catfish that are generally portrayed as being carnivores or meat-eaters are best described as predators. In their natural surroundings these catfish would feed predominantly upon live foods, which in the wild would include other fishes. In most cases the stomachs of these catfishes are able to take a whole fish or other prey. Some of the larger predatory catfish may only feed once or twice per week or even once every few weeks, spending the rest of the time digesting their food.

Catfish that are generally portrayed as being herbivores or vegetable-eaters are best described, as we would be vegetarian. In their natural surroundings these catfish would feed predominantly upon algae, fruit and plants. Herbivores are described as not having a stomach, but instead have an expanded small intestine. These catfishes tend to feed often, and in an aquarium can be seen constantly grazing.

Some fish may be classified as omnivores, but most are mainly plant eaters. So if you have a specific kind of fish in mind. Some fish will eat baby fish if they are hungry enough.
