Diet Habits

Banded Killifish have been observed to feed on all levels of the water column. The adults feed on a variety of items such as insects, nymphs, mollusks, turbellarians, and other small crustaceans. In contrast, the smaller individuals are limited to fewer items such as chironomid larvae, cladocerans, copepods, and midge larvae. Both young and adult Banded Killifish have been observed to feed mostly in the afternoon.
