Mixing clowns... ?

I have a mated pair of Tomato clowns in my 180g DT and I have 2 juvenile Ocellaris Clowns that have outgrown my Biocube8. Ive been researching the web on housing different clowns in one tank and what Ive read is that they need plenty of tank room as to occupy their own space. Is a 180 big enough to house 2 pair? Ive pretty much decided that its a no-go on having both pair in my tank, but just want someone to verify thats its not possible... I hate to give up my baby O's, Ive had them since they were tiny. I guess Im hoping there is some way to safely introduce them into the 180 without totally irking the Tomatoes.
I have two RBTA's in the 180 and the Tomatoes have each claimed one. I have one small RBTA in the Bio8 that one Oclown hosts and would move that over to the opposite side of 180.
The Tomato clowns are large, the male is 3" and the female is 4". The two O's are about 2" long each.

If its not possible, I will have to sell them :uhoh2: OR get a larger Nano :D
