a whale shark passes several tons of water per hour to filter plankton in
order to feed
Low , slow and in the flow.
The 18 foot wide manta ray does the same process, less water passes of the
food extraction organs and respiratory system.
Amazing that some of the largest organism must "ingest" the largest amounts
of water to acquire the nutrition to survive to successful reproduction ages.
