The relationship between the shark and the fish is that the shark is bigger, faster, and stronger, and the fish is inferior to the shark. The shark will always win and eat the fish.

Sharks do not have a symbiotic relationship with the fish they eat. However, a lot of sharks do have a symbiotic relationship with remoras. This small, tubelike fish attaches itself to larger fish (including sharks) by means of a suction cup on its head. It eats external parasites off the shark. The remora gets a free meal and the shark gets rid of its parasites.
As a matter of fact, Yes they do. Pilot Fish, shark sucker fish or Remora have a symbiotic relationship. The smaller fish get food and the shark gets cleaned.
Of the three types of symbiotic relationships (mutualism, commensalism and parasitism) the relationship that generally occurs between sharks and remora fish is commensalism - which is the same as with remora fish and other predators, such as stingrays, etc. Commensalism describes a relationship in which one animal (in this case the remora fish) is benefiting while the other (the shark) is neither benefited or harmed. The remora fish can be described as a freeloader, as it picks up scraps of food that the shark misses, without having to hunt itself. Hope this helps!
The symbiotic relationship between pilot fish and a shark may be what is is called commensalism. In this type of symbioses, the pilot fish benefit, and there is no known effect on the shark. But this is not certain. The pilot fish does eat bacteria and dead skin off the shark, and this may actually be enough benefit to justify the relationship. The pilot fish do not, however, lead a shark (or ray, or turtle) to food. The pilot fish consume small scraps, parasites, crabs, etc. that are associated with shark prey.

What is the symbiotic relationship between eagles and fish

sucker fish never oppose shark fish, it's always swim under the shadow of shark,it will get the residue of the shark after the hunt and sucker always protected from other fishes because of being with the shark.
There isn't one, the sucker fish is strictly a parasite on the shark.

Remora fish and sharks have a mutual symbiotic relationship. Studies have shown that there is a bacteria that grows on the sharks that is potentially deadly to a shark. The remora fish eats this bacteria and gets a meal. The remora fish also gets transportation with a lesser energy cost.
I am not sure, i think it is fish and chips!
