BG are very much predators. Here is a bit from a previous thread which would apply to FH fry as well.
Of interest were their findings about predation. Predation on larval bluegills was inhibited by nest-guarding male bluegills. The data implicated juvenile bluegills as the major predators on bluegill larvae, followed in importance by pumpkinseed. Bluegill (3-12 cm total length) were the most abundant nest predators. Pumpkinseed (7 -11 cm), largemouth bass (4- 5 cm), and whitefin shiners (5-6 cm) also were nest predators.
