Abstract:

Present study was carried out to reveal the prevalent and unforeseen parasitic infection in commercially available ornamental fishes which may credit to their marketable value. Seven different species of ornamental fishes namely Carassius auratus (Gold Fish and Black Moor Gold), Cyprinus carpio (Koi Carp), Poecilia reticulate (Guppy), Rasbora daniconius (Slender Rasbora), Puntius conchonicus (Rosy Barbs), Trichogaster lasius (Brass gold) were screened for the occurrence of infection.

Keywords:
