Bacteriophage more commonly known as a phage is a virus that infects bacteria.
The Soviet Union has used these for the last 60 years as an alternative for antibiotics.

What can microbes eat?
fungi bacteria viruses
What do paramecium eat?
Paramecium primarily feed on bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms found in water. They use their cilia to sweep these food particles into their oral groove, where they are then engulfed and digested.
Are cavity bacteria dead or alive?
Cavity bacteria are alive. They are microorganisms that can feed off of sugar in the mouth and produce acid as a byproduct, which can lead to tooth decay and cavities. Proper oral hygiene can help control the growth of cavity-causing bacteria.
Do paramecium need sun light?
No, paramecium do not require sunlight for photosynthesis like plants do. They are unicellular organisms that primarily feed on bacteria and other microorganisms in their environment for energy.
Can amoeba be found in a pond?
Yes, amoebas can be found in ponds as they are common in freshwater environments. Amoebas feed on bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms present in the water.
What bacteria hunt and feed on bacteria smaller than themselves?

What do baby mosquitoes eat?
A baby mosquito will feed on algae, bacteria, and microorganisms while they are still a larvae living in the water. Once they hit adulthood they will feed off of blood.
What do paramecium eat?
Paramecium primarily feed on bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms found in water. They use their cilia to sweep these food particles into their oral groove, where they are then engulfed and digested.
Do bacteria eat zoolpankton?
No, only in the fact that they feed on decomposing matter which may consist of zooplankton, but they do not feed on live zooplankton since they are much smaller.
Are cavity bacteria dead or alive?
Cavity bacteria are alive. They are microorganisms that can feed off of sugar in the mouth and produce acid as a byproduct, which can lead to tooth decay and cavities. Proper oral hygiene can help control the growth of cavity-causing bacteria.

Can amoeba be found in a pond?
Yes, amoebas can be found in ponds as they are common in freshwater environments. Amoebas feed on bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms present in the water.
Is an amoeba a herbivore?
Amoeba do not strictly feed on algae and plant matter, but also eat bacteria and protists which themselves consume other bacteria, so I would say no.
What are the microorganisms of the rumen?
The microorganisms found in the rumen of a ruminant animal consist of the following:BacteriaProtozoaFungiBacteriophage (bacteria virus)MycoplasmasMethanogensThere are three types of microbes: 1% that have attached themselves to rumen epithelial cells, 20 to 30% which are free-floating in the ruminal fluid, and 70-80% which have attached themselves to the tiny feed particles floating in the ruminal cavity. All are an integral part of the ruminal ecosystem and play a role in ruminal ecology in maintaining a diverse and healthy population of micro-organisms.
Where do ciliates live?
Ciliates are a protozoa that feed off of smaller bacteria. They are most commonly found in lakes, streams and ponds.
What drinks are found in bacteria?
Bacteria do not consume or produce drinks. They are single-celled microorganisms that typically feed on organic matter such as sugars, proteins, and carbohydrates. They obtain nutrients through various mechanisms such as diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
