Six Line Wrasse Question

[Cscultho]

I have a yellow eye tang along with a six line wrasse. i observed this morning the 6-line picking from the side of the yellow eye!? Never seen this before.

Is the wrasse doing pest control?

Yes. They can be facultative cleaners. They can also be real jerks.

Yeah, keep an eye on that to make sure it isn't doing damage to the tang. The six lines can be known to suddenly turn aggressive after reaching a certain size/age.
