Flatworms are primarily carnivorous and often feed on small invertebrates, such as crustaceans, or decaying organic matter. In ecological terms, they are considered secondary consumers because they typically consume primary consumers. However, some flatworm species may also feed on detritus, making them opportunistic feeders in their environments.
