Niche partitioning is when two different species use the same resource without competing. For example fish feeding at different depths in a lake, or monkeys feeding at different levels in the trees. One species of spiny mouse eats insects during the day, another species feeds on the same kind of insects at night.

Perhaps the fish feeding in a freshwater lake is an example of a freshwater niche.
