Yes. Absolutely. If the food is limited (a limiting factor), then of course the fish will compete to survive. If this is the case, the larger fish will usually eat the food, and the smaller fish will go hungry and eventually die.
the limiting factors are competition, food shortages,floods, diseases natural dissasters, and poaching
A limiting factor is a factor that limits the growth, distribution, or abundance of a population in an ecosystem. Examples include food availability, competition for resources, predation, disease, and environmental conditions such as temperature or water availability.
Population limiting factors are things that restrict the amount of a population from going over a certain point in an area. Some limiting factors are: Space: Too little space is a limiting factor. Imagine 20 people living in an apartment. Now 20 in a mansion. Food: Too little food is one. Imagine 20 people sharing one steak compared to 20 people eating 20 steaks.
Climate,lack of shelter, sicknesses and parasites, food or water as well as the carrying capacity are examples of limiting factors.
A limiting factor is a factor that restricts the growth, abundance, or distribution of an organism in an ecosystem. Limiting factors can be biotic (such as food availability or predation) or abiotic (such as temperature or water availability). When a limiting factor becomes scarce, it can cause a decrease in population size or limit the overall productivity of an ecosystem.
when large populations starts to need higher supply of food and water so they start to compete.
If you are out of food you die.
when space becomescrowed

Parasitism
a limiting factor would be if the prey/predator numbers were reduced majorly.
Limiting factors are resources or environmental conditions that restrict the growth, abundance, or distribution of a population within an ecosystem. Examples include food availability, water supply, shelter, space, and presence of predators. When a limiting factor is in short supply, it can prevent a population from increasing further.
Weather is a factor that prevents a population from increasing. Or the term for it is called Limiting Factor
"In an ecosystem, a limiting nutrient constrains the growth of organisms much like how a limiting factor, such as food availability or predation, constrains the population growth of a species."

food and living space
A population size decrease is the usual response in the population size of many species to a density-independent limiting factor. Not enough food is an example of a limiting factor.
