Tiger Grouper (Mycteroperca tigris) being cleaned by Caribbean Neon Gobies (Elacatinus lobeli) and a juvenile Spanish Hogfish (Bodianus rufus), Roatan, Honduras Nice example of a symbiotic relationship : on these "cleaning stations", tiny cleaner fishes will help bigger specimens get rid of dead skin and parasites. You can observe tiny brownish parasites on the lower jaw of this grouper, gathering there as they try to flee from chasing gobies.
