On what do you base these assertions?  

The largest known animal ever to have lived on earth is alive right
now.  It eats some of the smaller animals on earth.  It just eats lots
of them.

Have you ever seen an ant-eater in "person?"  They are not tiny
animals.  They eat insects, actually rather smallish ones.  

And a decent-sized fish is far closer to Suchomimus's mass than an ant
is to an ant-eater's.
