(Platy-helminthes), Acanthocephala dan kiste); pada ikan gapi ditemukan Trichodinid (Ciliophora), Gyrodaclylus sp. (Platyhelminthes) dan Lerneae sp. (Krustasea); pada ikan rainbowg ditemukan parasit Trichodinid (Ciliophora), Dactylogyrus sp., Gyrodaclylus sp. (Platyhelminthes), Acanthocephala, Lerneae sp. {Krustasea) dan kista.
