Add butter/olive oil combination. Add the fillets, without crowding. Increase heat to high and saute, shaking the pan from time to time, until the bottom of the fish is nicely browned, about 3 minutes. Turn and brown the other side. Remove fish to a plate and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with remaining fillets.
Copepods are considered to be primary consumers. They form an important link in the food chain. Their diet consists of small plant plankton.
Some examples of phytoplankton are diatoms and dinoflagellates, which are responsible for seasonal algae blooms. Zooplankton are consumers that eat other plankton. Examples include copepods, krill, daphnia and jelleyfish. They are an important link between primary producers and higher trophic levels.
