In European mesotrophic lakes, P. lacustris consumed a significant amount of animal prey (primarily zooplankton crustaceans) and were a valuable food item for Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis). Thus, P. lacustris’s role as both a competitive consumer (top-down effects) and novel prey (bottom-up effects) may inflict significant impacts on local food webs

N/A
|
Paramysis lacustris is expected to cause a zooplankton reduction in areas it invades, leading to spiraling negative effects on planktivorus fish and higher trophic levels.

Prior to its introduction into the Curonian lagoon, studies showed that Paramysis lacustris exhibited preferential feeding on detritus and phytoplankton; its establishment was expected to improve the efficiency of detritus and primary production utilization in the autotrophic waters of the lagoon.

Gut samples later taken from introduced Paramysis lacustris revealed a significant proportion of planktonic crustaceans, suggesting active feeding on mesoplankton as opposed to on detritus and phytoplankton.
