Most plankton eat decay matter. But The most often one is Phytoplankton.
Plankton is just the classification. Phytoplankton produces its own food through photosynthesis. Some zooplankton eat phytoplankton, but they also consume decay matter.
AnswerZooplankton will often eat each other, phytoplankton, and decomposing matter.
Usually they eat krill a type of plankton that whales also eat.
Lobsters eat many variety of plankton. They are also known to eat crabs, sea urchins, sea stars, and small fish.
Most plankton, known as phytoplankton, (but not all) eat in much the same way as do plants - through photosynthesis, the process by which sunlight is converted into food energy.MorePlanktonic animals mostly eat other plankton, incluing the planktonic plants described above, and smaller animals which are also plankton. The smallest of the plankton can eat bacteria and detritus, but the largest of the plankton are true predators. These kind of plankton are called zooplankton, because they are animals.Phytoplankton eat small bacteria, which eat decomposing matter. They are in the blue whale's food chain.

Diatoms are a type of single celled plankton. There are no seals that eat plankton. Seals eat fish, with the exception of a few types, such as the Crabeater, which eats krill, and the leopard seal, which eats penguins and seal pups.
Earthworms can help a log decay by eating the decaying matter. Salamanders can help because they like to eat some of the animals that eat the decaying matter.
