There are a few steps you need to execute. See how below. 1. Provide a hiding place for the fish. 2. Also, provide an aquarium of large enough size so that fish can swim freely. 3. Provide high decoration to minimize territorial disputes. 4. Cover the aquarium so that the fish do not jump out of the aquarium. 5. After that, prepare water with a temperature of 75-80°F and a pH of 6.5-7.5. GOOD LUCK!!! — Coral Red Pencilfish
