Clowns are known to go for others, it may be that they are sqabbling over territory, try re-arranging the rock and leave the lights out for the fish to re-establish..Another method for a pita fish is to tape a small mirror to outseide of the tank..hopfully, one will pick up on it and move its attention away from the others for a few days...That few days maybe enough to quell the fighting..Or maybe more to Quarantine tank if possible for a week and try introducing it again...

Hope that helps a little

Nice tank! Glad to hear the new comer has been acepted. Early harassment is normal with like species. As long as the new comer respects the teritory of the established fish they will find peace with each other in most cases but not always. I think you could safely add one more small fish.
