Trichodina sp. has a fast-splitting reproduction ability, and it is widespread, infect more than one species of fish. Freshwater fish cultivation increases every year, but high mortality caused by this parasite occurs. Research to determine Trichodina sp. on freshwater fish larvae was conducted in the district of Exs. Banyumas Residency, Central Java. We used a survey method to collect the fish larvae samples consisting of tawes, mujaher, nilem, and bawal of hatchery centers in Purbalingga, Banyumas, and Banjarnegara. Isolation and identification of parasites were conducted at the Parasitology-Entomology Laboratory, Faculty of Biology. The results showed that the prevalence of Trichodiniasis in freshwater fish from Banyumas, Banjarnegara, and Purbalingga was lower than Trichodiniasis in gourami larvae. Trichodiniasis intensity in freshwater fish was moderate.
