    The false cleanerfish primarily lives in coral reef margins among the cleaning stations of the bluestreak cleaner wrasse ( Labroides dimidiatus ), [2] and are usually seen near locations of one or more L. dimidiatus. [6] With its territory primarily overlapping with its model fish, the false cleanerfish mimics both the appearance and occasionally the behavior of said fish. Though A. taeniatus ...

  4. Cleaning symbiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleaning_symbiosis

    Cleaning symbiosis is a mutually beneficial association between individuals of two species, where one (the cleaner) removes and eats parasites and other materials from the surface of the other (the client). Cleaning symbiosis is well-known among marine fish, where some small species of cleaner fish, notably wrasses but also species in other genera, are specialised to feed almost exclusively by ...

    Cleaner fish are fish that show a specialist feeding strategy [1] by providing a service to other species, referred to as clients, [2] by removing dead skin, ectoparasites, and infected tissue from the surface or gill chambers. [2] This example of cleaning symbiosis represents mutualism and cooperation behaviour, [3] an ecological interaction that benefits both parties involved. However, the ...

  7. Bluestreak cleaner wrasse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluestreak_cleaner_wrasse

    Some fish mimic cleaner wrasses. For example, a species of blenny called Aspidontus taeniatus has evolved the same behavior to tear small pieces of flesh or skin from bigger fish rather than rid them of parasites. Another species, the bluestreak fangblenny, Plagiotremus rhinorhynchos, mimics juvenile cleaner wrasse so its presence is tolerated by the cleaners, which, it is assumed, enables it ...
