Protozoans are parasites. As are worms, which is probably what you're asking.

Are the parents wild-caught? If not, then parasites are less likely. Begin with taking a fresh sample to your vet for analysis. Ensure that your temps are proper so that digestion is occuring properly. Other husbandry cues should be addressed to eliminate stress as a factor.
