Hello everyone,
So I have a 34 gallon mixed reef and am trying to get an idea of my stocking options, right now I have a sixline and a bicolor blenny, in the future I am getting some variation of an ocelarris and a long nose hawkfish will be the last edition to help with aggression issues. Anyway so I'm considering adding the royal gramma but I feel like my sixline might become aggressive since they both share the same habitat. My sixline hasn't bothered anyone yet but I want to not put any other fish that it could see as competing for territory. I know they can become aggressive but In experience and extensive research almost any fish can have their aggression tamed if their is nothing impeding on its territory

The Royal Gramma is a beautiful fish but very territorial. Your Sixline already owns the tank, though he may not show aggression to your bicolor I assure he'll go head-to-head with the RG until one of them dies. The Hawk isn't a fish that swims in open water very much so he's borderline compatible.

For general questions like your's I'd highly recommend the forum (http://reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=1) right above this one.

Yah that was my suspicion with the sixline so I'll find a fish that has completely different territory

Royal Grammas are wussies and not really great fighters. I never tried them with sixlines but wouldn't expect those two to get into fights as both have different feeding habits.
