Congrats! It'll take sometime. Don't let them be alone together if the new addition is new. Also the older ones are probably jealous. Spread the love evenly. Try play with all of them. Keep food bowls separate until they sort out the pecking order.

Any new "family" members are going to be excluded for a while it may even take years. The only thing you can really do is make sure that they do not hurt each other. Cats are especailly selfish, they will not share territory INCLUDING YOU! with a new cat, it will take time and patience but relax and don't worry they will figure out a pecking order and all will be well again.

don't worry -- they will get used to each other and get along eventually. normally they will behave this way and when a new member is added to the family, they would feel invaded. they did not grow up with the new cat, so they see him as a stranger.
based on my experience, give it time. after a couple of weeks, they'll be fine. spend some quality time with the new cat, to let the other cats know that he is not a stranger.

Give it some time. He's a Tom and they are battling for postion on the top cat thing. They will overcome it...

Give it time. They'll settle down eventually.
