SEA TURTLE STOPS FOR A VISIT TO UNDERWATER SPA - Or car wash, to get itself scrubbed up by worker fish

Wax and polish: Sea turtle stops by underwater 'car wash' to get a clean and scrub from electric yellow fish.  These brightly coloured fish have been photographed happily operating an underwater car wash to help clean passing sea turtles. 

 

Photographer Masa Ushioda, 43, described the fish as working 'like a car wash' and said the electric yellow, purple and blue fish worked enthusiastically on each turtle that checked in for a scrub.  The busy crew operated 60ft underwater in the Pacific Ocean off the Kona coast of Hawaii, America, in an area known as Turtle Pinnacle.  The 3ft long Green Sea Turtle is an endangered species but it is abundant in Hawaii.
