A cross sectional study was conducted from November 2016 to March 2017 in Lake Ziway to determine the prevalence of contra caecum parasites infestation of African cat fish and Nile tilapia. A total of 412 randomly selected fish species comprising of 157 African catfish and 225 Nile tilapia were sampled. All the sampled fish were eviscerated in laboratory to investigate the larva of contra caecum parasites. Chi-square statistic, p-value and comparison of proportion were used to analyze the data. The overall prevalence of contra caecum parasites of fish was 12.62% (52/412). The distribution of parasite was highly significantly affected by fish species (p=0.000). However, the difference between sexes was not seemed to be statistically significant (p=0.234) despite the prevalence was slightly higher in female (14.65%) than male (10.75%) fish. The contecaecum parasite is zoonotic. Therefore, awareness creation activities and control of fish parasites should be conducted in the study Lake.
