You can add a new clown, but your best bet is to quarantine him first to avoid infecting your other fish with anything that the new fish may have. Have a bottle of formalin on hand just in case. Adding a small clown is a good choice, it gives you a better chance of your current clown pairing up with him. It is not likely that your male clown will chase your goby since he will be dealing with your female's harassment for awhile.

I don't think you will have problems with them bullying the watchman. My watchman is one of my smallest fishes and he bucks up to the big fish when they swim near his home.

Are you planning to get the clownfish from the same store as the others? Likely whatever store the infected fish came from has a problem.
You should quarantine new clowns, and that treat them if needed. Brook is not limited to clownfish, BTW.
