Most dinoflagellates are marine plankton though they are also abundant in fresh water habitats. These organisms are known as photosynthetic.
phytoplankton eats all other kinds of plankton
there are some kinds of photosynthetic living organisms such as Plankton, certain sea slugs such as the Elysia Chlorotica, and Pea Aphids. --RKH

Phytoplankton is the type of plankton that is usually responsible for the toxic phenomenon known as red tide. The reason this happens is due to photosynthetic pigments in the algae.
Both Dino-flagellates cover a class of microbes that can be either photosynthetic or heterotrophic. About half are considered photosynthetic plankton (mostly in marine waters but some are also found in fresh water), they are eukaryotic algae (protozoa). Predator dino-flagellates do not have pigments like photosynthetic ones. There are also a few parasitic forms.
nop RT: Actually, I found out that it IS true. I believe it is something along the lines of there being photosynthetic plankton present in the oceans. Similar to trees, these plankton filter carbon-dioxide out of the oceans with the help of sunlight. Fish, other plankton and other organisms eat these plankton. Sharks help control the fish population, allowing the photosynthetic plankton to sustain a healthy population, or something to that affect. I am still researching...
All photosynthetic organisms create energy from sunlight.
