Message definition (Fish)
Like other animals, fish suffer from [[parasitism]]. Some species use [[cleaner fish]] to remove external parasites. The best known of these are the [[bluestreak cleaner wrasse]]s of [[coral reef]]s in the [[Indian Ocean|Indian]] and [[Pacific Ocean|Pacific]] oceans. These small fish maintain cleaning stations where other fish congregate and perform specific movements to attract the attention of the cleaners. Cleaning behaviors have been observed in a number of fish groups, including an interesting case between two cichlids of the same genus, ''[[Orange chromide|Etroplus maculatus]]'', the cleaner, and the much larger ''[[Etroplus suratensis|E. suratensis]]''.
