The lead in your draft of the Cleaner fish article is clear and it discussed all the important topics appropriately. The information added to the introductory sentence describes the article much better than the original sentence.

The content that was added to the article, is relevant to the topic. The new content really helps the readers deepen their knowledge of cleaner fish. There are some sentences throughout that I had to reread because they seemed a little bit long and sometimes confusing. There are also some grammar errors but it is nothing major.

The overall tone throughout the article is neutral. In the subsection of "challenges of using cleaner fish", the third paragraph starts off with " another important consideration", which can come off as less neutral.

The sources that were used throughout the article are all from reliable scientific literature. Your sources are consistent throughout, everything that is stated is backed up with a source. Also, one of the sources in your reference section is missing a date.

The organization of the article is very good. It is concise clear and easy to read. Specific information is easy to find in the article because of how the sections are broken down.

All in all, your contribution to the cleaner fish article is good. Some minor edits are needed but overall great job with contribution. I am looking forward to reading your final article.

Lead evaluation: The lead of this article was clear and concise. It included a brief introduction to each major section, and was not overly detailed. My biggest piece of advice would be to follow the same sequence in the lead as in the article. For example the sequence in the lead of mentioning what "cheating" is and then explaining the 2 different types of cleaner fish, is different then in sequence in the body of the article, as it goes into the 2 different types, and then later on explaining what cheating is. It may be easier for the reader to follow along if it is all presented in the same order.

Content evaluation: The added content is very relevant and up to date on the topic. The additions made in the new article allow the reader to have a deeper understanding of cleaner fish behaviour. All information included relates to the topic, as well as diving deeper into the science of the behaviour by describing the neurobiological aspects as well.

Tone and balance evaluation: The added content is neutral and does is not biased towards any position.

Sources and References: All content is supported by up to date and relevant sources. The added links have been checked and all work.

Organization evaluation: For the most part the added content is easy to read and flows well. There are some parts in the article that are a bit confusing such as " Cleaner fish display characteristics such as interaction duration and cleaner memories of reoccurring clients are influenced by the neuroendocrine system of the fish, involving hormones Arginine Vasotocin, Isotocin and serotonin." and may need to be re worded to be a bit clearer. There are also a few small grammatical errors with punctuation and "it's, its' " etc. Also note some wrong capitalization in some sentences such as " An Example of obligate cleaners is the sharknose goby (Elacatinus evelynae) in the Caribbean Reef, where it has been observed to perform up to 110 cleanings per day." Just a few minor things to look out for before submitting the final paper!

Images and media evaluation: The added images are a great contribution to the article, as they provide a further visualization to the topic. The images are well captioned as well. The placement of images was very visually appealing as they guided the eye through the content.

Overall evaluation: The article seems to be complete. The content added was relevant and up to date, and was also interesting to read. I enjoyed the depth in which the author dove into the the behaviour as it provided a clearer and more full picture of the behaviour in its' entirety. My biggest suggestion would be to re- read the article and check for awkward sentences and small grammatical errors. Overall, great article additions!
