I have a six line wrasse who bullies my yellow coris wrasse and royal gramma. I'm trying to figure out the best way to stop the annoyance of the other fish.
Chatgtp suggested that I move around the rocks to block her line of sight, I'm not sure what that means. Chatgpt also suggested the mirror trick. Here's a picture of my aquarium and rock.

In that size tank, I'd hasten to say that if bullying (on the part of the (Sixline) has started, it won't stop. 🫣

Well, the good news is it's not violent, no noticeable torn fins, no bullying during breakfast or feeding time. I'm just trying to figure out if it's possible to keep the butthead wrasse.
 
And this is why I don't like ChatGPT. Moving rocks around ain't gonna work. Typically, rockwork should provide hiding places that number the fish you have in the system and most rockwork generally has that. But even with those hidey-holes, your sixline will probably be just as difficult. You did do well to ask the members though. I'd seriously consider rehoming your wrasse. At the very least, you'll be able to replace it with something more mellow yellow.

Yeah, I'm going to wait and see, but I expect to rehome it. Everyone else gets along fine, but the slw is pushy.
 
I hope you have a secure lid on that tank. Yellow Coris and that Midas Blenheim will jump when spooked
Oh yeah. The midas blenny already carpet surfed. Scared me to death. I thought he was a worm or something between my feet. I grabbed a net and stuck him back in the aquarium and he acted like nothing happened. He likes to watch TV and I guess that he wanted a closer look.
 
Glad to hear you got a lid, and glad you able to put him back in tank with no harm done. 👍
He scared me because I was just doing water tests and I heard a splash and I looked on the floor and saw this earth worm brown thing on the ground and suddenly realized that it was Bob my midas blenny. He's one of my favorites. Every morning he's practically jumping out of the aquarium waiting to be fed. He and my yellow coris wrasse are pretty good buddies. They swim together all the time. I'm going to have to do something with the SLW though. :(
