Help! My clowns are picking on my new yellow tang

[linz8392]

Need advice. I have a 75 gallon reef tank. Have had a pair of clowns hosting in a yellow tree coral for a few years. Recently added a smaller yellow tang. The clowns are very aggressive to him. Picking at his fins etc. what to do? I moved the clowns to the 30 gallon sump to hopefully disorientate them a bit. Is this what should be tried or is there something else?

Thanks so much

And move around some rock in the tank...

Move some rock around and leave them in the sump for a few days. That should sort them out and give the tang a chance to get his bearings. Once the tang starts to grow you'll probably find him being the pain in the ass.
