In a stable ecoystem, there should always be more producers than carnivores. For one, there has to be more energy, because your energy flow has to reach the top of the pyramid through your primary, secondary, etc. consumers. There has to be more at the bottom because the organisms at the upper levels have to have a food source. How would the jungle look if there were 100 tigers and only 1 plant?
