I have a coral beauty angelfish that has a fin just sticking straight out is it possible that it could be dislocated and if so what should I do? I belive my female ocellaris clown did it she has been very aggressive since I got home any recommendations would be greatly appreciated

Either the pectoral fin is damaged at the base of the fin leading to what is known as Fin Clamping, or fish has developed a swim bladder issue using the fin to stabilize itself. It can or may go away in a couple of days. I would seperate that clown put it in a sump for a few days
 
I went ahead and moved him to my hospital tank. Thought the lower flow might help was that a good move or should I have just left in DT
