Never seen that before. Usually the Sixline is chasing other fish, not trying to clean them, haha.

While I have never witnessed this behavior personally, I have read that they may serve as cleaners to larger fish - picking off ich and isopods.

^ Yes, it is in fact possible for a sixline to do just that. However, it's a behavior most never see.
