Any small animal's metabolic rate is higher/faster than the larger/bigger ones. And breathing is positively correlated with metabolism. Thus small fish breath faster than large fish.

Why is pulse rate faster in small and young animals compared to that in large and older animals?

Small and young animals have higher metabolic rates and energy requirements, which lead to faster pulse rates to deliver oxygen and nutrients efficiently. Additionally, small animals have a higher surface area to volume ratio, requiring more rapid circulation to maintain body temperature. As animals age and grow larger, their metabolic rate typically decreases, leading to a slower pulse rate.
