How to add a blue tang in a 80gal with territorial clowns?

I currently have a typical 80gal tank with a huge RBTA and a pair of percs. They always chase my two green chromis and seem pretty territorial. I wanted to add a 3 inch blue tang in the tank. Is there anything I can do to lower the chances of the percs chasing the blue tang around and stressing him out? Thanks!

Add the blue tang at night when the lights are out. It will give him a chance to find a hiding spot and the clowns probably won't go after him in the dark. That's probably you're best bet...
 
i'm pretty sure they wont pick on the blue tang unless it's under an inch big.
 
Rearrange the rock work in your tank. Or perhaps just the side of the tank you clowns don't spend much time in. That way it is unknown territory to them and no t theirs any longer
