Well red ears are communal animal. The male is just being a male. You could provide more hiding spot for the female, go for even bigger tank so the female can ran away sometimes when she doesn't want to be bother.

Or you add a couple more females so the male take turns harassing everyone giving all the girls breaks in between. This ofc would need proper upgrade in environment.

I think 1:3 ratio should be good (1 male to 3 female)

What your male is experiencing right now is the last female on earth syndrome.
