![Anemone fish w Parasite; Cymothoa exigua; or the tongue-eating louse; is a parasitic crustacean of the family Cymothoidae. This parasite enters fish through the gills; and then attaches itself at the base of the fish's tongue. The female attaches to the tongue and the male attaches on the gill arches beneath and behind the female. Females are 8–29 millimetres (0.3–1.1 in) long and 4–14 mm (0.16–0.55 in) in maximum width. Males are approximately 7.5–15 mm (0.3–0.6 in) long and 3–7 mm (0.12–0.28 in) wide.[1] The parasite destroys the fish's tongue; and then attaches itself to the stub of what was once its tongue and becomes the fish's new tongue.[2]; Lembeh Straits; Sulawesi Sea; Indonesia; Amazing Underwater Photography; (Parasite info from Wikipedia)](https://www.niteflightphoto.com/img-get/I0000WGgANI72Fgc/t/150/I0000WGgANI72Fgc.jpg)
