give your clown back to the LFS and enjoy aquariums again?
Or maybe get a trigger who is bigger.

a dwarf angel might be able to hold its own against the clown terrorist, but you are getting quite a fish fish in the 30 gal, which if I remember correctly, you just set back up right?

If you have a quarantine tank, remove them for 7-10 days & re scape the rock work. Then add them at the same time you add the new addition OR BETTER YET...place them in the qtank at the same time that you put the new addition in quarantine. That way you get rid of hidden ich parasites while seeing how the clowns will act with the new fish while in an unestablished territory. You'll also need to move chomis to qtank to kill all ich.

Chuck meant put him in QT as a time-out ;) That way, he HOPEFULLY looses his spot in the pecking order when you put him back in.
