Yellow tang being aggressive w/ Leopard Wrasse

malate

I have 4 fish in 50 gallon cube (live rock, coral, etc). A pair of clowns, a Yellow Tang, and a female Leopard Wrasse. All are if similar size except smaller male clown.

Seems as if the yellow tang herds, or is territorial with on section of the tank only toward the wrasse. Saw it peck at the wrasse a couple of times.

Has anyone ever dealt with a relationship like this? And what's the solution or fix to this potential issue?? I've put the tang in quarantine in one of my sump chambers. Hopefully it can work out.
 
I use a small mirror to distract the tang for a few days. Then afterwards once removed they usually could care less about a wrasse
