Cleaning stations may be associated with coral reefs, located either on top of a coral head or in a slot between two outcroppings. Other cleaning stations may be located under large clumps of floating seaweed or at an accepted point in a river or lagoon. Cleaning stations are an exhibition of mutualism . Cleaner fish also obviously impact ...
Cleaner fish. Cleaner fish are fish that show a specialist feeding strategy [1] by providing a service to other species, referred to as clients, [2] by removing dead skin, ectoparasites, and infected tissue from the surface or gill chambers. [2] This example of cleaning symbiosis represents mutualism and cooperation behaviour, [3] an ecological ...
The swim bladder, gas bladder, fish maw, or air bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that contributes to the ability of many bony fish (but not cartilaginous fish [1]) to control their buoyancy, and thus to stay at their current water depth without having to expend energy in swimming. [2] Also, the dorsal position of the swim bladder means ...
Cleaning symbiosis is a mutually beneficial association between individuals of two species, where one (the cleaner) removes and eats parasites and other materials from the surface of the other (the client). Cleaning symbiosis is well-known among marine fish, where some small species of cleaner fish, notably wrasses but also species in other ...
The swim bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that contributes to the ability of a fish to control its buoyancy, and thus to stay at the current water depth without having to waste energy in swimming. [1] A fish with swim bladder disorder can float nose down tail up, or can float to the top or sink to the bottom of the aquarium.
"The Clean, Perfect Yellow Hat": The Man with the Yellow Hat has just gotten his yellow hat back from the cleaners and it is clean, fresh, and perfect, but George's antics wind up nearly blowing the hat away and wind up with a twig caught in the hat. George tries to fix it and winds up pulling a thread loose, making a stain, and then a hole in ...
The false cleanerfish ( Aspidontus taeniatus) is a species of combtooth blenny, a mimic that copies both the dance and appearance of Labroides dimidiatus (the bluestreak cleaner wrasse), a similarly colored species of cleaner wrasse. It likely mimics that species to avoid predation, [2] as well as to occasionally bite the fins of its victims ...
Clarifying agent. Clarifying agents are used to remove suspended solids from liquids by inducing flocculation, causing the solids to form larger aggregates that can be easily removed after they either float to the surface or sink to the bottom of the containment vessel.
