Fish farming in Brazil recently stands out as a promising activity, but the susceptibility of cultivars to diseases caused by oomycetes has been causing losses. This study aimed to identify oomycetes in soil and water in fish farms in the semi-arid region of Brazil, highlighting species with pathogenic potential for fish. 301 occurrences of oomycetes were obtained, of which 19 taxa were identified. Of these, 18 were present in the soil samples (94.7%) and 13 species identified in the water samples, which corresponded to 68.42% of the species. No fish infected with oomycetes were found in nurseries, but the identification of these microorganisms should serve as a warning for fish farmers.
