Dari yang saya baca, jawabannya 'ada'. Bahkan ada yang sampai 
menimbulkan stress pada ikan tertentu. Untuk jelasnya dapat dilihat pada:

Walstad, D.L. 2003. Ecology of the Planted Aquarium: A Practical Manual 
and Scientific Treatise for the Home Aquarist, Second Edition. 
Echinodorus Publishing.

Di Internet juga bisa dibaca:

"Algal succession and allelochemicals. Many species of algae produce 
allelochemicals, which suppress the growth of other algae. Investigators 
found that allelopathic chemicals released by the filamentous alga 
Pithophora tended to suppress other algae, especially the single-celled 
pelagic algae responsible for "green water." In Ecology of the Planted 
Aquarium, Diana Walstad reported a 1969 study, in which aquaria with 
24-hour lighting turned green in a week, but not identical tanks 
containing active Pithophora. Though the toxins of a successful alga may 
help suppress its competitors, directly or indirectly they may also be 
encouraging the species that will take that alga's place. Dying algae 
can release phytotoxins, an effect recognized in drinking water by 
unappealing tastes produced by otherwise acceptable algae after 
chlorination. This is a minor problem in water treatment systems, but it 
can be a major problem in the narrow confines of an aquarium. After 
you've done some successful algae killing, water changes are in order."

Nanti saya coba lihat di rumah dan post di sini kalo ada keterangan 
tambahan, insya Allah. BTW, ini buku cocok bagi yang ingin aquascaping 
secara alami (dan murah) atau yang ingin memahami sedikit kejadian dalam 
aquarium secara ilmiah. Untuk contoh hasilnya dapat dilihat pada:

Semoga bermanfaat.
