In a freshwater aquatic ecosystem like a pond, the organisms in the food chain include algae, small animals, insects, and their larvae, small fish, big fish, and a fish-eating bird or animal.
The food chain that exists in a pond is a grazing food chain.
Producer(Phytoplanktons) → Primary consumer(Zooplankton) → Secondary consumers(Small Fishes) → Humans.
Hence the type of food chain that exists in a pond is 'Grazing food chain'.
