    - Zooplankton: These are small animals and protozoans that feed on phytoplankton. Zooplankton serve as a crucial food source for fish, crustaceans, and other larger marine species.

    - Bacterioplankton: These bacteria decompose organic materials in the water. They play a role in nutrient cycling but do not typically consume phytoplankton.

    - Zooxanthellae: These are symbiotic dinoflagellates that live within the tissues of certain marine animals like corals. They perform photosynthesis and don't consume phytoplankton.
