It depends. If your current source water (See: WATER - Source and NSW) is or might be contaminated with nitrates, proteins, and/or phosphates, then the switch to source water that doesn't contain these would be of benefit at reducing nuisance, unwanted microlife.
Source water is one origin for the contaminants that feed these lifeforms. Some other considerations and ideas can be found in the eleventh post in this thread: RE: Nitrates.
Sometimes it just takes time for things to settle. See: The Mature AquariumLEE
