Fish use all of their fins for propulsion in one way or another. (Man does not just use his legs for walking and running. He uses (swings) his arms too). Some species use mainly their pectoral fins (seahorse) and others mainly use their caudal fin.(Salmon) They all however rely on the use of all the fins working in conjunction with one another in order to swim from one place to another slowly or very fast or even to hover in running water.

All fins help move in different ways.

Dorsal fins help in balance/stability in water

Pelvic, vertical movement, change in depth

Caudal fins help push a fish forward

Pectoral - fish "walking"

Anal fin, stability

There are more fins but this is the general idea.
