These characteristic patterns emerge on the growing fish body, as well as on the anal and caudal fins. While wild-type stripes form parallel to a horizontal marker on the body, patterns on the tailfin gradually extend distally outward. Interestingly, several mutations lead to altered body patterns without affecting fin stripes. Through an exploratory modeling approach, our goal is to help better understand these differences between body and fin patterns. By adapting a prior agent-based model of cell interactions on the fish body, we present an in silico study of stripe development on tailfins. Our main result is a demonstration that two cell types can produce stripes on the caudal fin. We highlight several ways that bone rays, growth, and the body-fin interface may be involved in patterning, and we raise questions for future work related to pattern robustness.
