An organism that eats live or freshly killed decomposers is a consumer. That could be a rodent eating a mushroom or a bird eating an earthworm.

If the decomposers that are being consumed are already dead and decaying, and if they are being reduced to basic nutrients, then the eating organism is a decomposer. It will probably be a bacteria or fungus or earthworm or fly maggot.
