What happens to the amount of energy available as you move up the food web from producer to tertiary consumer?

It will decrease. The amount of energy that a producer makes will be used to maintain the needs of the primary consumer. That reduced amount will be used by the secondary consumer for their needs (growth and reproduction). That really leaves very little to be passed on. That is the reason why the numbers get smaller and smaller as you go up the food chain. There just isn't enough energy for many in the third level.
