so is it one day, 1 week, or until there are no signs of aggressive behavior.
 
For me it’s normally 24-48 hours but there are a few variables such as how comfortable the new addition is in the acclimation box not just signs of aggression from established fish. I normally like to see the new fish eat in the acclimation box first as well.
