  1. family echeneidae

    Family Echeneidae is a family of marine fish also known as remoras or suckerfish. This family includes about eight species across four genera. They are typically found in tropical oceans and are characterized by an oval sucking disc on top of their heads, which they use to attach themselves to larger marine animals. Members of this family range in size from 1 to 3 ft (30-90 cm) in length. Echeneidae family species have a long, slim body, and a dorsal fin. They feed on scraps and particles left by the host animal, and also on small organisms in the water. The relationship between remoras and their hosts is commensal rather than parasitic, as they do not harm their hosts.
