In this case, the fish receive a free dental cleaning and the cleaning station gets food scraps that the fish leave behind. Both species benefit from the relationship.<\/p>\n<p>These very real cleaning stations are areas that a fish can swim into and have parasites, bacteria, and dead skin removed from the skin, scales, gills and mouths of fish. The &#8220;cleaners&#8221; are gobies, blennies, wrasse fish, and shrimp that live in a concentrated area to provide cleaning services. The &#8220;clients,&#8221; are larger fish like grouper and sharks, which open their mouths to allow the cleaners to do their job.<\/p>\n<p>In this symbiotic relationship, the fish gets a stress-free cleaning, while the small fish, shrimp and other organisms that live in the station get a meal.
