The idea is when introducing new fish to your tank, to reduce aggression, you could use a social acclimation chamber. What it really is, is a clear submesible box and inside you can put a few PVC pipes for your fish to hide in.

This box should be big enough for your fish to live in for a couple of days and still get fed. It would allow your fish to get to know each other with actual physical contact. It allows you to observe their behaviour and release the new fish when aggression subsides. It helps if you are introducing some delicated fish to some existing fish would might be very terriitorial.
