They don't even eat. They talk about it a couple times. Odo mentioning how he tried to fake eating very early on just to fit in and it was very messy. And then there was that time he showed off making a glass full of himself so he could pretend to drink to fit in at parties.

They never really did explain the biology of that. How they get by.

They're probably photosensitizing energy from the sun. That would explain why they're spread out in a giant lake, completely exposed.

But then how would Odo survive on a space station for so long? Sunbathing on the roof of DS9?
