Clowns bullying yellow coris

I put a yellow coris in last Saturday and my pair of false pecs chased it and the corris went into hiding. Saw him today for the first time in a week and the clowns are still bullying/chasing him. The seem to make a point of looking for him. He has not fully gone into hiding again but he does move behind the rock work to get away from them.

The female clown was alwasy a little bit of a bully but the male who alwasy seemed pretty docile has now gotten a bit aggressive to the wrasse. The clowns don't really bother anyone else in the tank (trio of flame wrasses, small hippo, laboutei wrasse).

Any thoughts on what may be going on here or if it should pass over time.

Thanks.
 
Can anyone give me some thoughts on this. The still seem to actively seek out the wrasse when he is out and chase/nip at him.
