Bent dorsal fins in angelfish can be caused by several factors, including poor water quality, inadequate diet, and stress. High levels of ammonia, nitrites, or nitrates in the water can lead to health issues, resulting in deformities. Additionally, nutritional deficiencies may impact their growth and fin development. Stress from overcrowding, aggressive tank mates, or sudden environmental changes can also contribute to this condition.
There are two Dorsal fins on a perch. The anterior and posterior Dorsal fins.
A survey documented wild males orcas have fins bent. No one is exactly sure why the dorsal fins of killer whales bend, but it may have to do with genetics, injuries, or because the fins can be taller than many humans without any hard bones or muscles for support.
Porpoises have triangular dorsal fins (as opposed to the curved dorsal fins of dolphins and whales). Some species of porpoise have small bumps on their fins, but the purpose of these bumps is unknown.
Sharks have straight dorsal fins, dolphins have curved dorsal fins and whales don't have dorsal fins :)
Angelfish release gas with their fins.
Yes, giant cat fish do have dorsal fins.
dorsal fins
Shark dorsal fins are typically straight and rigid, while dolphin dorsal fins are curved or falcate. This difference in dorsal fin shape is one of the visual cues you can use to differentiate between sharks and dolphins in the wild.

An angelfish!
By its fins
Angelfish swim primarily by using their pectoral fins, which they flap in a rhythmic motion to propel themselves through the water. Their streamlined bodies allow for smooth movement, while their dorsal and anal fins help with stabilization and steering. By adjusting the angle and speed of their fin movements, angelfish can navigate effectively in their aquatic environment. This combination of fin movement and body flexibility enables them to swim gracefully and efficiently.
