Ectoparasites on freshwater fishes (Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus) in fish farm at Kiambalang, Inanam / Neneyyeni Fadilis

The study of ectoparasites on freshwater fishes (Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus) was carried out on June 2019 until December 2019 in fish farm at Kiambalang, Inanam. The identification, prevalence and intensity of ectoparasites on Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus were exami...

The identification, prevalence and intensity of ectoparasites on Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus were examined in this study. A total of 45 Clarias gariepinus fish and 45 Oreochromis niloticus fish were taken from the fish farm located at Kiambalang, Inanam. The method that used was the fish sex identification, mucous scrapping, preservation of mucous, examined and identification of ectoparasites and physicochemical parameters measurement. Four species of ectoparasites were determined from both freshwater fish namely, Gyrodactylus salaris (42.22 %), Contracaecum rudolphii (24.44 %), Criconemoides morgense (46.67 %) and Caenorhabditis elegans (26.67 %).
