How it feeds- The tunicate is a suspension feeder. What brings in the food and water is a system called the in-current siphon. Then the ex-current siphon gets rid of the waste and leftover water that was in the body.

What it feeds on- The tunicate mostly searches for palnkton. When the tunicate catches the plankton it is caught in the tunicate's pharynx, which then goes down through the esphogus. Then, the waste of their food is directed out of the anus, into the water.
