No, the perch does not have a heteroceral tail. Instead, it features a homoceral tail, where the upper and lower lobes of the tail fin are symmetrical in shape. Heteroceral tails, which are uneven with a larger upper lobe, are typically found in some species of sharks and other fish. The design of the perch's tail aids in its swimming efficiency in freshwater environments.
