Yeah adding them all together I would have probably been okay -- but my sixline definitely thought he owned the tank. Now an empty pop bottle just owned him

Lucky I had to tear the 270g apart to get my sixline out. He's now in the sump

And here's the replacement occupant -- very much on the more peaceful side

Red Scooter Blenny

He was at Red Coral (where my sixline is now ). Currently only 1" long, but will become the size of any scooter.

What are you feeding her and is she eating? The reason I ask is that these fish eat live pods. Over time, a year or so, a tank will populate itself with pods.
A newer tank like yours will not have enough pods to keep her alive.
If you see that she is not taking food it is best to return her the lfs and wait until your tank matures before you get another one.
She also should not have any other fish that compete for the same food

If you find it not eating, we can stick it in the frag tank for a while. I can barely see frags there are so many pods in there.
