Dead fish swimming.

Unfortunately, this hawkfish is not long for this world, given the size of the parasites. Parasites like this are one of the reasons there are cleaning stations, where cleaner shrimps and fish will pick them off for the host fish before they get too large. Too late for this guy, though.
