"Nekton" means "swimming things." Most nekton are fish. Not too many swimming plants, though; they mostly appear (unrooted) as "plankton" or "floating things." Actually, there are both zoplankton (floating critters) and phytoplankton (floating veggies).

That is an oveous question ,NOTHING its a producer it makes its own food

small fishes eat nekton then a shrimp then a seal and thats how the food chain goes:)

What are the different types of nekton of the open ocean?

Nekton is any organisim that swims freely in the ocean, whereas plankton is any organisim in the ocean that floats on the top layer of water. Nekton are multicellular and plankton are multicellular or unicellular. The Zooplankton are Multicellular and Phytoplankton are Unicellular. Nekton are Consumers but also can be Producers. For they eat plankton making them consumers, but also, we eat them ((well some of them)), so that makes them producers aswell. General forms of Nekton include Fish, Sharks, Whales, Or Jellyfish.
