most affected will be the creatures that eat algae (like whales, flamingo etc.) 
next the creature that eat them and that they also eat 
then gradually the web spreads affecting both prey and predator of the animals 
well algae is a main source of food for many herbivores in the ocean . the herbivores would have no food causing them to die off which would led to the carnivores to die off as well . the food web would become unstable
