How do turtles and cleaner fish benefit from their interactions

In a mutualistic relationship both organisms benefit from living closely together in a symbiotic relationship. We can for example observe this on cleaning stations. Different fish nibble on old skin and small creatures such as parasites living on the sea turtle. The fish gets dinner, the turtle a free surface clean!
