Now should go here a species that I didn't get photos of, and that is not present in the Gallery after searching by Chocolate-dipped damselfish, Chromis dimidiata, Chocolatedip chromis, Pycnochromis, Chromis dimidiatus, Apiapi, Chocolate chromis nor Chocolate-dip.

So here is a copyright-free image from Wikipedia, photographed by Diego Delso at Ras Muhammad national park, Egypt.

I'm curious how you determined it is this species you've seen as there is the very similar iomelas and fieldi?

P. iomelas is significantly brighter, the white part of the fish is very clear. But P. fieldi and dimidiata look very similar. The major difference is a more curved delineation for P. fieldi, the white continues a little more throughout the dorsal fin. All three species are in captivity, but P. dimidiata remains the most common one, making it not impossible for Kakapo to have seen this one more than once. On the other hand, visually distinguishing the species while they swim around is very hard and I don't expect he actually did try to ID the exact species but only considers this a species complex.
 
My dear friend, I don't have the enough knowlegde about Chromis for being able to tell appart. I didn't even knew the two species you mention. I guess I've just followed the signage in tanks.

The snake is a photo of a snouted/banded cobra, not an Egyptian. A lot of ones in the USA are signed incorrectly.
 
Oh. I see where the confusion started: Naja annulifera also receives the common name of "banded Egyptian cobra", despite being a South African species.

This one, unbanded, should be the true Naja haje:
