fish aggression

[JDuong916]

I hope this is the right place to post, so here goes. I have a female lyretail anthias, blue chromis and a pair of clowns, and a few more fish that are not the problem. I added another female anthias a few weeks ago. She is doing fine but always has to hide from the originla anthias, the other fish leave her alone. Today i decided to add another male lyretail that is smaller than the female lyretail. He gets chased by the female non stop and the damsel and clown fish have also been picking on the male lyretail pretty bad. I'm thinking if i take the damsel out and the female lyretail the new anthias would be fine in the tank, as the clowns dont seem to chase, they are just territoral. Then after two weeks i want to add the damsel and female back into the tank and maybe they will chill out.

Is there a possibility this will work?

How many gallons is the tank? What is the full list of fish? Yes, the clowns are territorial. They are also damsels. Typically there is one male anthias to 3 or more female. I suspect the large female was transitioning to become a male, or was simply dominant in size. Im not sure how introducing them one at a time like that will work. Hopefully someone with more anthias experience can respond.
