I mean, there is a strong (but not universal) tendency for rheophilic plants, pseudoplants, and animals to evolve so high an oxygen demand that they die of suffocation in still water. It's not hard to imagine some bacterium using the flow for not just O2 or filterfeeding but direct energy gain.

#SpongeSunday: Some #glasssponges, such as this 2-meter-tall #Caulophacus, grow long, flexible stalks to reach higher in the water column for #filterfeeding. Some sponges are thought to be hundreds or even thousands of years old!

I feel like there are more mouths.
Many things 'feel vibration' in lieu of traditional hearing, but most things have a mouth — even if just for filterfeeding...

St. Remedius Medical College: “Looking Back At The Aftermath”

St. Remedius Medical College: “Looking Back At The Aftermath”
What Changed With St. Remedius's Disappearance, And What Stayed Exactly The Same (Who was St. Remedius? And why is a medical college named after him?) Photo by Max Fray on Unsplash Both before and after the disappearance of St. Remedius Medical College, Dallas, Texas was a Heisenberg condensate given real estate. There was the Dallas everyone worldwide knew, whether it was the Denisovian Embassy downtown, the fae enclaves and tribes in the north suburbs, or the giant sessile filterfeeding grackles in vacant fields that grazed on the tons of dust and pollen blown up every day from the center of the state.
