Concerning to the extension of the maintenance of ornamental fish in Iran and the world, the issue of health and diseases of this species is of particular importance. The proliferation and cultivation of ornamental fish have dramatically increased in recent decades due to its beautiful appearance, small size and easy maintenance.

Dactylogyrus sp. and external parasite Lernae sp. were investigated. Different organs of the fish body were examined by conventional methods of parasitology and staining. Of the 100 Oscars, 87 cases (87%) were infected with parasites. 80% of the monohydrate, respectively, were 73% infected with the protozoa.
