Abstract
The study aims to find the diversity of freshwater algae present in the temple tank of Adikesava Perumal temple, Korattur, Chennai. The samples were collected in plastic bottles from various sites in the temple tank. The samples were checked for their pH and temperature. The samples were brought to the laboratory and maintained in an open tank under direct sunlight for 4 weeks. The observation and documentation of the algae were done using the LABOMED VISION 2000 Binocular microscopic unit. Many different varieties of algal species were found from the samples collected. From this, we can conclude that temple tanks act as the best source of a sustainable environment for the growth of algae with diversity and can also be used to monitor the pollution level.
