Daphnia, commonly known as water fleas, primarily feed on phytoplankton, which includes microscopic algae and bacteria. They filter these tiny particles from the water using their specialized appendages, allowing them to efficiently capture food while swimming. Additionally, Daphnia can consume detritus and organic matter, contributing to their role in aquatic ecosystems as both grazers and decomposers.
