Pelvic Fin: Situated ventrally beneath and slightly behind the pectoral fins, pelvic fins are integral for maintaining position in the water column In some species, such as members of the cod family, pelvic fins may even be located anterior to the pectoral fins They help in controlling the fish’s vertical movement and can aid in slowing down

Generally, fish use pelvic fins for moving upwards and downwards in the water The Anal fin is also known as cloacal fin which is located on the ventral side just behind the anus It supports the dorsal fin and stabilizes the fish during swimming and contrinols the rolling motion
