No, they aren't.
Plankton may be both producer (phytoplankton) and consumer (zoo plankton) but is not a decomposer (that is the job for bacteria). Phytoplankton is the producer, which is eaten by zooplankton, which is then eaten by other organisms in the ocean.

Among the organisms listed, phytoplankton is the producer. Phytoplankton are microscopic, photosynthetic organisms found in aquatic environments that convert sunlight and carbon dioxide into organic matter through photosynthesis, forming the base of the aquatic food web. In contrast, mayflies, frogs, and salamanders are consumers that rely on other organisms for energy.
They are primary producers in an estuarine ecosystem.
A producer
The main producer of oxygen on Earth is phytoplankton, particularly in the oceans. These microscopic organisms use photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and sunlight into oxygen. Phytoplankton are critical to the planet's oxygen balance and overall health of aquatic ecosystems.
Phytoplankton are the autotrophs that are the main producers for the upper layers of the ocean.This is because the upper layers of the ocean provide the most sunlight, which is what phytoplankton need in order to perform photosynthesis.
No, a bear is not a primary producer. Primary producers, such as plants and phytoplankton, are organisms that produce their own energy through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Bears are consumers; they obtain energy by eating other organisms, including plants and animals.
phytoplankton
Phytoplankton are photosynthetic organisms. They get their energy from sunlight.
Phytoplankton are producers. Zooplankton are not.
