Ya, about a month from now it'll calm down...Let it pass it the large one doesn't stop and keeps going 24/7 for a few days i;d separate them.

Different tanks, 1 QT one display, Give it time, It's better just to watch them she'll always go for him every day just make sure he does seem like he's lathargic or dieing slowly...I'd give it time, you should wait a month or 2...'
The smaller one may be attacked during the day but left alone at night
It takes a few weeks to a few months....

My maroon female clown nipped at my male for about the first 3 days they were in my tank, but now they are both living happily in a toadstool leather coral. I would keep a close eye on them for the next few days to make sure that the "nipping" is just occasional and like others said if it continues you need to seperate them.
