Remora fish (or sucker fish) tend to attach themselves to larger marine animals such as sharks, rays, whales and sea turtles. In such symbiotic relationship, remoras remove the parasites (such as copepods) found on the host turtle and clean sloughing epidermal tissue as well as ingesting scraps of food, feces, and small nekton and zooplankton. On the other hand, remoras benefits by using the host as transport and protection, and also feeds on materials dropped by the host.
