No idea but I had a 10 inch ornate try and eat a fat 4 inch raphael catfish.. luckily raphs dont take **** from no one and managed to fight himself away from the bichir before both would end up dead
Its possible to cohab at different sizes 
they get along great (del is near the end of the lap)

Here's the thing with fish. If it will easily fit in its mouth it's possibly going to get eaten. Is that a sure thing...no especially with polys. Polys don't always follow the rules which is a good thing for those of us who love them so much. But yes I also have a large size difference living together, my female del is 14" and my albino is about 6".
Oh and I just put a new 7" super skinny rope fish in too. That sucker would go down like spaghetti! Lol
But hasn't and most likely won't.
