The invention relates to an artificial fish reef type vertical anchor which comprises trapezoidal plates, ribbed plates, a top plate, a connecting device and horizontal plates, wherein the trapezoidal plates are isosceles trapezoidal plates with notches in the middles of the lower edges, pairwise side edges of five groups of trapezoidal plates with same specifications are mutually connected to form a three-dimensional structure with a regular pentagonal cross section, the top plate is connected above the trapezoidal plates, a connecting device is arranged above the top plate, the ribbed plates are arranged on the inner sides of connecting places of pairwise adjacent trapezoidal plates, the distances between the ribbed plates and the trapezoidal plates at two sides of the ribbed plates are equal, the horizontal plates are arranged on the inner sides of the trapezoidal plates and positioned between every two ribbed plates, the horizontal plates are positioned on positions slightly above the notches of the trapezoidal plates, the horizontal plates are parallel with the top plate, exhaust holes are formed in the trapezoidal plates, in the wall surfaces of the horizontal plates below horizontal positions and the wall surfaces, which are close to the upper edges, of the trapezoidal plates, and holes are formed in the trapezoidal plates, and the wall surfaces of the horizontal plates above the horizontal positions. The artificial fish reef type vertical anchor has the advantages of low cost, strong corrosion resistance, improvement of natural environment, and the like.
