Personality profiling may help select better cleaner fish for sea-lice control in salmon farming
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are increasingly being used as cleaner fish to control parasitic sea-lice in salmon farming, but cleaning rates are very variable and not all individuals eat sea-lice, which increases the risk of emaciation and has ethical ...

Cleaner shrimp remove parasite eggs on fish cages
Benthic stages of cultured fishes’ ectoparasites are a major contributor to persistent reinfections in aquaculture. These stages are resistant to chemical therapies and are costly to manage in terms of time and labour.

Physiological Effects of Recapture and Transport from Net-Cages in Lumpfish
Lumpfish are widely used for removing sea lice in salmonid sea-based aquaculture. If these fish are to be harvested and used for human consumption, it is necessary to know how the physical strain associated with removing the lumpfish from the net-cages ...

The Neurobiology of Mutualistic Behavior: The Cleanerfish Swims into the Spotlight
One of the most notorious examples of cooperation between different species happens in the cleaner-client fish mutualism. The best known cleaner fish species, the bluestreak Indo-Pacific cleaner wrasse Labroides dimidiatus has been a model system to ...
