Clownfish bother

So here's the story, I got a Picasso clownfish for my 6' 125 gallon tank and about a week later a friend of mine had a tank that broke so he brought his pair of clownfish to my house and ever since then, my friends male clownfish is chasing around the single Picasso and bothering it. From the looks of its aggression, could the male be turning into a female and pairing with the picasso even though the male is paired with a female currently. If not should I seperate the aggressive male by placing it in a breeder box for a week or two. Would this calm down the aggression?
 
i would remove the picasso, or the pair you just put in. more than likely on fish will end up dead. removing the paired male to calm down wont do much but make matters worse. i dont think the male turning into female, since the female is still alive. more than likely it is keeping the picasso away from his and hers new turf in the tank.
my opinion is to remove the picasso or the pair. or if you want to pair the picasso with the female, then remove the male.
