Hawaiian cleaner wrasse

The Hawaiian cleaner wrasse, Labroides phthirophagus, is a species of fish native to the Hawaiian Islands. It exhibits a striking color pattern with vibrant blue and yellow hues across its body. Resembling other cleaner wrasses, it has a slender, elongated shape. Primarily known for its role in removing parasites from other fish, this wrasse is a vital part of its ecosystem. While it has an ecological significance, it is not particularly well-known in the aquarium hobby, largely due to its specialized feeding requirements and the challenges associated with keeping it in captive environments.
