Poster - Purple-headed Parrotfish being cleaned by Wrasse

Purple-headed Parrotfish at a cleaning station patiently waiting whilst Cleaner Wrasse remove parasites from his gills and scales. Parrotfish resemble parrots both with their vibrant coloration and beak like teeth which they use to rasp algae from corals & rocky outgrowths.

Our photo posters and canvas prints featuring pictures of reef fishes are printed individually to order. We print at high resolution onto premium photo poster paper or high quality canvas. Canvas prints are hand-framed using gallery style pinewood bars.
