Cycling with a live fish is a cruel way to start your tank. Wait until NO2 reaches 0, and then preform a water change to lower your NO3. Then you can begin adding livestock. Though I'd suggest QTing your clowns in a separate tank. You don't want to bring Ich into your tank you just spent so long cycling!
Sk8r has some GREAT stickies at the top of this forum about all of this.
