A small colorful fish that feeds by removing parasites, dead skin, and algae from larger fish, in a symbiotic relationship.
Named 'barberfish' because it acts like a barber, cleaning and grooming larger fish similar to how a barber cleans and grooms human customers.
Barberfish are clever con artists—some species have evolved to perfectly mimic real cleaning fish, but instead of removing parasites, they bite chunks out of their customers' fins and flee, proving that even in nature, fraud exists.
