#### 5. Set Token Balance and Ratio

* Adjust the token balance to maintain the correct liquidity ratio.
* The weight percentage will be displayed (e.g., 50% CAVIAR / 50% XRD).

#### 6. Add Tokens to the Pool

* Enter the number of tokens to add or/and slide the slider. If you can't slide the slider then you don't have enough of one of the tokens
* Since pools operate on a ratio basis, both tokens must be added in proportion.

#### 7. Create the Pool

* Click the **"Create Pool"** button to finalize the process.
* Your liquidity pool is now live and ready for swaps!

### Additional Information

* Liquidity providers earn fees from each trade occurring within the pool.
* Once created, your pool will be available on the CaviarNine platform for others to trade.
