What are types of secondary ocean consumers?
Anything that eats zoo-plankton is a secondary consumer in the ocean. Because much of the oceans ecosystem is reliant on phytoplankton, and zoo-plankton are some of the only creature that consume phytoplankton, making them a primary consumer, anything that eats zoo-plankton is a secondary consumer. Some exmaples of secondary consumers are muscles, scallops, barnacles, and moving up the scale even the blue whale eats zoo-plankton, therefore making it a secondary consumer.
