Abstract


Managing the pond’s water quality, including the algal community, is vital. This study aimed to evaluate the diversity of algae species and the relationship between Chlorophyll-a with hydrochemical parameters in Uncle Ho’s fish pond. Algae species were identified under a microscope at magnifications of 10×, 20× and 40×, chlorophyll-a was measured with an algae analyzer, and hydrochemical parameters were analyzed in the laboratory which meet ISO 17025:2017 standard. The results showed that there were 93 algal species and under species, in six taxonomic groups, detected in the pond. Chlorophyta was the dominant group (52.69%,) followed by Euglenophyta (19.35%), Cyanobacteriophyta (17.20%), Bacillariophyta (8.60%), Ochrophyta (1.08%) and Rhodophyta (1.08%). Chlorophyceae was the most dominant class with 36 species and under species, of which distinct dominant species were Pediastrum duplex, followed by Pediastrum simplex, Pediastrum tetras, Scenedesmus quadricauda and Dictyosphaerium pulchellum. The mean chlorophyll-a concentration in the rainy season (from April to October) was 1.15 times higher than in the dry season (from November to March). Studied results also found that temperature positively correlated with pH (r = 0.56, P = 0.01), Chlorophyll-a positively correlated with COD, and TSS (r=0.81, =0.64 p<0.01) suggested that the growth of algae caused the change of TSS concentration in Uncle Ho's fish pond. COD had a positive correlation with TSS (r=0.44, p<0.05) due to the adsorption of TSS.
