Sea cucumbers primarily feed on organic matter found on the ocean floor, rather than directly consuming plankton. They typically ingest sediment, extracting nutrients from decomposing plant and animal materials. Some species may indirectly consume plankton by feeding on sediment that contains planktonic organisms, but plankton is not a primary component of their diet.
