Provide sufficient space: Make sure the fish tank is large enough to provide each fish with sufficient living space to reduce competition and conflict between them.

Rationally match fish species: Choose fish species with good compatibility for polyculture, and avoid putting fish that are too aggressive or have large size differences together.

Good breeding environment: Provide suitable water quality, temperature and feed to ensure the health and comfort of fish and reduce their stress and aggression.
