The Kraken is the Producer because it has direct energy converter and it's bringing nutrients into the water. The Kraken has a symbiotic algae embedded in its massive, translucent skin. This sea monster sheds nutrient-rich skin fragments into the water, feeding filter feeders and to the decomposers.

The Glow shrimp as a primary consumer plays an important role in the ecosystem by contributing to energy transfer, nutrient cycling, and overall ecosystem balance. By feeding on microorganisms and algae, the glow shrimp produces waster that sinks to the ocean floor, providing nutrients for decomposers like vent worms and fungi. Without the glow shrimp, the energy flow in the ecosystem would weaken, disrupting the balance and reducing biodiversity.

These filter feeders contribute by recycling nutrients, supporting higher trophic levels, and regulating microorganisms. Their filtering activity helps maintain water clarity, which so benefits the other species that rely on vision or light based signaling. By continuously feeding and producing water, filter feeders distribute nutrients and energy across the different parts of the ecosystem.

The luminous Eel is a long, snakelike predators that feed on filter feeders and glow shrimp. The Eels regulate prey populations, and contribute to nutrient cycling, and influencing predator prey dynamics. By preying on the glow shrimps and abyssal filter feeders this eel ensures diversity among primary consumers and avoid domination by any single group.

The Abyssal Rays is a Wide, manta ray-like creature that skims nutrients from the ocean floor and prey on smaller filter feeders. The rays contribute to the ecosystem by maintaining balance in prey populations, redistributing nutrients and supporting higher trophic levels. Abyssal Ryas act as a vital energy bridge, they convert energy from smaller organisms into a form accessible to larger predators.

This Fungi thrives on the organic debris from the Kraken's activities. Bioluminescent fungi contribute to the unique light dynamics of the deep sea. They decompose of dead organisms, and waste products such as the fragments of the Kraken's skin or remains of the glow shrimp. By breaking down these organic materials the Bioluminescent fungi make nutrients accessible to other decomposers such as the vent worms. With the light that this fungus has it can attract scavengers, decomposers, and small predators to nutrient rich areas.

Adapted sharks with black, light absorbing skin that hunts packs. Midnight sharks' prey on luminous eels, abyssal rays, and other mid-level predators. With this it ensures that the primary consumers such as the glow shrimp and filter feeders are not overexploited. These sharks also combine energy from lower trophic levels and transfer it throughout the entire ecosystem.

These are giant squid like creatures that hunt on luminous eels and rays. These huge creatures have a heavy impact on the food web due to their size, diet and behaviors. These sea animals control the mid-level predator so by doing that they indirectly support primary consumers, and they prevent overflow disruptions in the food web. Without these leviathans the mid-level predator's population would most likely grow to be unchecked, which would lead to imbalances and the reduces of biodiversity.

Vent worms break down the Kraken's skin fragments. These vent worm's thriver near hydrothermal vents and other nutrient-rich areas. While breaking down the organic materials the Vent Worms release nutrients like carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur back into the environment. The nutrients released by the vent worms enhance the growth of the chemosynthetic bacteria and other producers near these hydrothermal vents.

1. The climate in my ecosystem is like Frigid temperatures with hydrothermal microclimates.

2. The water is really cold usually around 1 to 4C (34 to 39 degrees Fahrenheit). The water here is also very salty with a salinity of about 35 parts per thousand. The water moves really slowly in most of the ecosystem. This ecosystem is found on the deep sea, way below where the sunlight can reach. At this level it's pitch black. Sine the sunlight doesn't reach this depth the water is completely dark.

3. This deep-sea ecosystem is located in the aphotic zone, so it receives no sunlight at all.

4. This ecosystem is a saltwater environment.

5. This ecosystem is not connected to a freshwater source.

6. In this deep-sea ecosystem seasonal changes are minimal compared to surface ecosystems because it is so far removed from sunlight, weather, and surface conditions.

7. If all primary consumers in this deep-sea ecosystem became extinct, the entire food web would collapse because energy and nutrients wouldn't flow properly. If the glow shrimp and abyssal filter feeders were extinct the energy would not transfer from producers to higher levels of the food web.

8. If all the decomposers in this ecosystem were removed, it would have serious impact on the food web. Decomposers like the vent worms and bacteria, break down dead plants, animals, and waste, recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. Without them, everything would break down slowly or not at all.
