The smaller fish looks like a Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse,
Labroides dimidiatus. It is a non-migratory fish and
inhabits coral-rich areas of inner lagoons and subtidal reef
flats to seaward reef at depths of over 40 metres. It picks
parasites and dead skin from the skin and gills of other
fish. It stays in stations where other fish come to be
cleaned. Cleaning stations are occupied by a pair of adults,
a group of juveniles or a group of females accompanied by
a dominant male where a female becomes a functional male if
the dominant male disappears.
