### Add CLV Compatible Tokens

All your CLV compatible tokens will be viewable in this network once you have imported the token information.&#x20;

1. Navigate to the bottom of the CLV Network page in MetaMask and select **Import Token**.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
IMPORTANT: To use the CLV chain, you must have $CLV for transaction gas fees. **0.02 $CLV** is recommended, it will be more than enough to get you started on CLV Chain. See how you can [withdraw and bridge $CLV to CLV Parachain.](/use-clv-chain/beginners-guide/how-to-get-usdclv.md)
