There's no trick to it. They eat with their mouths just like a person does.

There are no plants in the deep ocean.

However there is a food chain in the deep ocean that does not depend on light but on chemicals. Extremophyle bacteria form the basis of a food chain that exists near black smokers in the deep ocean.

Eating can’t be an easy thing underwater. Open your mouth to catch a tasty fish, and water rushes in. Thankfully, evolutionary phenomena pretty much ensure that organisms are well-adapted to live in their respective habitats and ecological niches.

If you're refering to the plantae kingdom, they convert sunlight into food through photosynthesis.
