FishObsessed Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I'm new to angelfish and purchased 3 baby ones a couple weeks ago. A few days ago I noticed ones dorsal top tall fin is starting to curl over instead of coming to a point. What does this mean or is it normal for some?

ange Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Some angels have bent fins, though it sounds more like yours just has a blunt fin. It's pretty common and usually not something to worry about. Sometimes they'll grow to be more pointed with time and sometimes they stay that way forever, angels change a lot as they grow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostiesFishes Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 A picture would help a lot. But with out seeing it I can add a little bit of insight. So 3 things could be going on. first would be that the angelfish has more of a wide type fin compared to a veil fin and that’s just a totally normal trait. The other two factors That would cause a bent fin are bad water quality or genetics. Now this is from limited experience . I’ve gotta a few angelfish to spawn and see bent fins come from Offspring that when I started to notice the fins being bent checked the water daily. and found no issues with the Water using an api master test kit. So I’d have to blame it on genetics. Hope this helps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
