Fire Goby  Nemateleotris magnifica
The firefish inhabits burrows on the upper portion of outer reef slopes at a depth range of 6–61 m.  This species hovers above the bottom, facing the current to feed on zooplankton: primarily copepods and crustacean larvae. This species does not stray far from its burrow, and occurs individually or in pairs.  This species displays monogamy.

The Law Of The Wild says kill ONLY when you are hungry 

Photographer Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing pictures on safari in Kenya’s Masai Mara in October last year, said he was astounded by what he saw:
 

“These three brothers (cheetahs) have been living together since they left their mother at about 18 months old,’ he said. 
‘On the morning we saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking quickly but stopping sometimes to play together. 
‘At one point, they met a group of impala who ran away. But one youngster was not quick enough and the brothers caught it easily’.”
 

These extraordinary scenes followed..

and then they just walked away without hurting him………. 
Life is short…forgive quickly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably…and never regret anything that made you smile.
