Cleaner fish remove parasites from other organisms, called clients. While there is an extensive body of work on the positive role of cleaners for their clients and reef communities, remarkably, potential parasites hosted by specialised cleaner fishes themselves have not been explored.

Cleaner fish are potential super-spreaders
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2022ABSTRACT Cleaning symbiosis is critical for maintaining healthy biological communities in tropical marine ecosystems. However, potential negative impacts of mutualism, such as the transmission of pathogens and parasites during cleaning interactions, have rarely been evaluated.

Cleaner blues: Condition-dependent colour and cleaner fish service quality
Behavioural Processes, 2020While vivid colours in sexual signals can provide information on individual quality, vivid colours in interspecific signals have been interpreted mostly as indicating species identity and maximizing signal detection. Here we investigate if colour differences in an interspecific signal could also indicate relevant aspects of individual quality because ...

Cleaner shrimp are true cleaners of injured fish
Marine Biology, 2018Reef fishes sustain injuries from various behavioural and environmental interactions. Injured fishes have been observed frequenting cleaning stations to be attended by different cleaner fishes. This symbiotic relationship between injured fishes and cleaner fishes has only been observed in the wild and has never been demonstrated empirically for cleaner

Cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus recognise familiar clients
Animal Cognition, 2002Individual recognition has been attributed a crucial role in the evolution of complex social systems such as helping behaviour and cooperation. A classical example for interspecific cooperation is the mutualism between the cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus and its client reef fish species.

Are cleaner fish, Labroides dimidiatus, inequity averse?
Animal Behaviour, 2012Inequity aversion (IA), a willingness to incur temporary costs to prevent unequal outcomes, is common in humans and thought to be beneficial in the context of cooperative relationships with nonkin, since it might allow individuals to regulate contributions to cooperative activities.

Choosy reef fish select cleaner fish that provide high-quality service
Animal Behaviour, 2002Abstract Reef fish that actively visit cleaner fish to have parasites and dead or infected tissue removed face two potential problems: they might have to wait while cleaners inspect other clients, and cleaners might feed on healthy body tissue, a behaviour that is referred to as cheating.

Are cleaner fishes replaceable on coral reefs as consumers of fish ectoparasites?
2022Specialist species have evolved to fill narrow niches but are especially susceptible to environmental change. With sufficient functional redundancy, ecosystem services can persist without specialists. Grooming behaviors are common in both terrestrial and aquatic organisms.
