I've read a couple of angelfish breeding guides that mention fry being born with no anal fins, often due to being the fry of probably-inbred chain store angelfish. Clearly you wouldn't want to breed those fry, and usually they're culled, but has anyone grown a few up just to see what they look like? Aside from the bad genes, I don't think a fish with no anal fin would have any issues, aside from maybe some minor difficulty keeping itself balanced, and I'm quite curious what a fully grown one would look like. Not curious enough to purposefully breed a batch of defective angels, though.
So has anyone ever grown one like that up? I'd think it might look sorta cool.
