Filter feeders in the ocean filter water through their body to eat. They filter phytoplankton out of the water to gain nutrients.
Ocean filter feeders primarily consume phytoplankton, zooplankton, and small fish. They use specialized filtering structures, such as baleen plates or mucus webs, to capture and feed on these tiny organisms as they pass through the water. Some filter feeders may also consume organic particles and detritus present in the water column.
Filter feeders, such as baleen whales and bivalve mollusks, use specialized structures to extract food particles from water. They passively filter water through their feeding apparatus, like baleen plates or gills, and trap small food particles, such as plankton or algae. These organisms then extract nutrients from the trapped particles before expelling the filtered water.
Cockles are filter feeders, meaning they primarily eat plankton and other small particles found in the water. They use their siphons to draw in water and filter out food particles to consume.
A marine worm that live in a tube of its own secretion. These animals are filter feeders and can be found in the extreme depths of the ocean.
Polychaete worms are known to be opportunistic feeders, consuming a variety of food sources such as small organisms, plankton, detritus, and algae. Some species are filter feeders, while others are carnivorous, scavengers or herbivores. Their diet may vary depending on the species and habitat they inhabit.
Filter feeders are called filter feeders so they suck in water and eat the tiny plankton in the oceanwith there tiny filter hairs.

they eat the alge under/in the sand
As we know it, filter feeders in the oceans live on plankton . These really small organisms thrive in all the oceans .

Different species of algae live in the ocean, and fither feeders also eat minerals, or even some perviously chewed food left behind by different types of fish. Though, what they eat really depends on their species!
Filter feeders and fluid feeders are alike in a great number of ways. These animals both sift for food to eat.

Like all good filter feeders, Dungeness Crabs eat what ever left over carrion they can find on the bottom of the ocean.
