	and its nonpredatory client reef fish species, which actively seek
	cleaners to have their ectoparasites removed. Clients Ctenochaetus
	striatus regularly jolted in response to cleaner mouth contact, and
	these jolts were not linked to the removal of parasites. In addition,
	cleaners did not search for parasites but fed on mucus when exposed
	to anaesthetized clients, which could not control the cleaners' behaviour.
	Field data showed that clients often terminated an interaction immediately
	after a jolt. Client species with access to only one cleaning station,
	owing to their small territories or home ranges, terminated interactions
	mainly by chasing cleaners while clients with access to two or more
	cleaning stations mainly swam away. Thus, the chasing of cleaners
	appeared to be a form of punishment, imposing costs on the cleaner
	at the client's (momentary) expense. Chasing yields future benefits,
	as jolts were on average less frequent during interactions between
	cleaners and individuals that had terminated their previous interaction
	by aggressive chasing.},
