Secondary Consumer








The Barracuda is a secondary consumer. It eats other fish so it make it a meat-eater and is also prey to larger fish. They live in tropical oceans.









The octopus inhabits many parts of the ocean, especially coral reefs. There are 289 different ocopus species. They have eight arms usually baring suction cups. They have mostly soft bodies with no internal skeleton.

Octopuses eat shrimp, lobsters, crabs, and snails. They eat by grabbing prey into their eight arms. Using their parrot-like mouth, they shred prey into small pieces that will fit into their mouths.
