Muriatic acid is known, I thought it is used to cure concrete ponds
and is harmful to fish. If I am not mistaken it is HCl, so one of
compounds is very toxic to fish. What if Cl in certain conditions is
released to water?

It is a chemical reaction of any acid with a base or organic. You get
bubbles. Cl in the water would become, well, muriatic acid again.
