Clownfish vs. Leopard Wrasse

So I have had my 2 black clowns for a while now and I introduced a new Leopard Wrasse a couple of days ago. Everytime he comes out of the sand, the female clown attacks/chases him. What can I do? Any ideas of how to ease the tension?

Thanks!

Try putting a mirror up and see if that distracts the clown.

A mirror? where?

Just in a corner where the clown hangs out when the lights go on.
i did it with my yellow tang picking on my scopas for a few days, and it was so intent on going after its reflection it forgot about the scopas and everything was kosher.
