The number of plankton is uncountable, even if you were to try to determine specie count rather than population.

Plankton include many creatures - bacteria, algae, various protozoa, diatoms, etc - that drift in the ocean and are food for many marine animals. There are phytoplankton that make their own food via photosynthesis. Zooplankton eat phytoplankton or smaller zooplankton. Bigger animals eat the zooplankton, and so on.
