What would happen if a tank was heavily overstocked, i'm not talking about my overstocking, just in general. When I refer to overstocked im thinking about 2/3" of fish per 1" of tank. What are the effects of this? How long can the fish last?

My tank is begining to go slighty cloudy and has alot of small specs floating and just in the tank. I just wonderd what this was, I think it might be a build up of algea, but i'm not sure, should I just turn the light off for a few days and cover my fishtank sides with newspaper? and maybe do...
