Very small fish and shrimps it catches its prey on beach shores when it's buried under sand

I got stung by a weever fish on holiday in Portugal and the lifeguard who treated me initially called it a sparrow fish, at least I think that's what he said (he had a strong Portuguese accent). Someone else said it was a weever fish so I'm thinking that maybe sparrow fish is the local name for it? Nasty little buggers, and it was VERY sore - google it!

Whales eat krill and other fish. Fish eat other fish, depending on what type of fish it is.
There are fish that do eat them, but not ALL fish eat them.
