the sharks dont eat the remoras because they have a symbiotic relationships, meaning they both get what they want e.g the shark gets it's dead skin off while the remora get fed, free ride (save energy ) and also get protection.

Sharks do not tend to mind these parasites sticking to them all the time, remoras just stick to sharks to either get around or to eat the dirt off them. Remoras are streamlined so that it will not affect the shark's swimming.

What are the little fish that clean sharks?

The pilot fish swims with the shark and eats lice, crabs and blood-sucking worms. In exchange, the shark provides protection from the pilot fish's predators. Remoras also swim with sharks.
