Answer is primary consumer. (depending on the type of web you are constructing) krill is a primary consumer or secondary because the primarys include phytoplanktons, zooplankton algae etc and since kill eat phyto and zoo plankton it would be a primary consumer or in a food web it would be in the second bottom row making it secondary in the food piramid or web. eg. bottom row: phytoplankton and zooplankton second bottom row: krill, prawns, and fish then the next up are the tertiary and quaternary row, which are the higher levels in the food web.
