Actually many Italians have contributed research on this phenomenon which has been dubbed THE EVEL EYE I think your jawfish better watch out.
Seriously. I think your sixline was just flashing or posturing to show dominance. As I keep saying they are not angels

hmm. Well I didnt see the sixline actually attack the jawfish. just some chasing and a bit of a standoff. How much damage can a sixline do? I am getting a bellus angel and would hate for the wrasse to bully it.
Its not so much the physical damage it’s the constant harassment the sixline can do. That being said I have seen first hand what damage my sixline can do and it’s very extensive

I hate these fish. Watch it carefully. It may chase your jawfish so much it causes too much stress and then the jawfish will starve to death. If it stays a problem remove the six line. They do well with aggressive fish not passive fish.

my jawfish hasnt been eating much lately
. maybe only 1-2 mysis shrimp a day. I think I am going to try and catch the wrasse because my jawfish is my favorite fish and I dont want to risk it harassing my bellus angel.

Ok first hand info. Plan your capture well. I would swear that my sixline when I tried to capture him learned my approach and acted accordingly to escape there after

I plan to go in during feeding time. And I use a clear plastic container in one hand with the lid in another hand. I hope maybe at a glance he wont realize its there. or even better I'll use a clear drinking glass. Besides the whole chasing the jawfish thing he is such a mellow fish. I really hate getting rid of him but no one messes with my jawfish.
