Why do fishes fins flop over?
Because they have either overgrown or (if you mean why do they flop over out of water) they are not supposed to fight gravity as water negates the majority of gravities effects. If the fins flop over under water it is natural and is caused by the fact that their fins do not ever stop growing. The growth does eventually slow down but due to the length of the fins of some fish, such as betta fish, there is hardly any support such as there is in bones and cartilage that the long and tall fin cannot be held up.
