Scientists are unsure. Personally, I believe that they were bottom feeders eating small particles from the sea floor. Considering Hallucigenia lived during the time of the earliest plants, rather than being a carnivorous scavenger it was likely an omnivore or an early herbivore.

The genus Hallucigenia is a speculative marine animal of the Cambrian period, thought to be related to modern "velvet worms" by their segmentation. Its life cycle and niche have not been determined from the fossil record, but they may have been food for the larger carnivorous Anomalocaridids that lived from the Cambrian into the early Devonian.

Is the Hallucigenia one of the smallest animals in the world?

Hallucigenia fossils were first found in British Columbia, Canada; and more recently, in China. The name Hallucigenia comes from Simon Conway Morris, who was one of the first to take another look at the specimens that were already found by Charles Walcott. The name was derived from the idea that these creatures are extremely bizarre and have a dream-like quality to them, much like a hallucination. The creature was said to be from 0.5-3cm long and was very wormlike with a head that didn't include most sensory organs we'd find today, such as the eyes and nose. Instead the Hallucigenia had seven pincer-tipped tentacles on each side of its body, and then three pairs of tentacles behind those. Some of these tentacles were paired with spines and it's said that one had the main purpose of feeding the creature. Recent studies have shown both male and female species, the males having a more rounded head and neck while the females had the opposite.
