Help!

[relisefishies8897]

I don't really know how to explain what's going on... My 10gal (which is not a new aquarium) has gotten murky and clouded. I vacuum as mush as my schedual will alow and it wont clear up. In the tank are:

4 Tiger Barbs
3 Panda Corys
2 ADFs

My plants are also suffering. I don't know what to do! I used to feed algae pellets but switched to froggy bites and flakes with the occasional blood worms or brine shrimp. I've tried everything that I can think of... can anyone HELP!!!

What is your partial water change (PWC) schedule? (How much, how often)
What are you levels of: ammonia, nitrite, nitrate?
What type and size of filtration?
How often do you clean the filter media?
What color cloudy?

Twice a month if possible.
All safe.
Aqueon- medium.
When I clean the tank.
Cloud colored... white I guess.

Cloudy white is typically a bacterial bloom, it is harmless. It is usually caused by an excess of nutrients in the water and will clear up when the nutrients are used up. That is a lot of load for a ten gallon tank. I would increase your water changes to 50% every week and decrease feeding.
