Parasites are a significant component of biodiversity. They negatively affect fish appearance, growth, and reproduction. In this study, the prevalence infection, diversity, mean intensity parasites were examined in 9 freshwater species (45 samples per species). Ecto-parasites on skin, gills, fins with hand lens. Wet mounts prepared using mucosal scrapings from all external internal organs sampled fish. Microscopy, muscle compression, pepsin-HCL artificial digestion technique also performed....
Abstract Reports abound on Lernaea parasitizing the brood stock, fingerlings, and marketable-sized culturable freshwater fish species in various parts of world. We investigated seven small-scale aquaculture farms how prevailing is impacting them. Randomly were selected to determine prevalence percentage lernaeid ectoparasites. Relevant information fishponds estimate aspects such as effects water source quality, feed, stocking density, treatment used, weight length fish, concerned with...
