I believe it would depend on the type of plankton eaten. Eating phytoplankton would probably be equivalent to eating plants, and would make the eater either herbivorous or omnivorous. Zooplankton would probably be the equivalent of eating meats, and would make the consumer either omnivorous or carnivorous.
