I do water changes 20% exery wednesday. I put in 1/2 dose flora pride by tetra with water changes. I think this helps. There is some algea starting to form slowly on plastic decorations, the bala seem to like this alot,
What advice can you give me, I want to add the dept of field, do you like the cave, the bubbles roll out the front of cave and most out the back.
I also have 10 moonlight leds that I leave on 24/7.

About Yourself:
to make a long story short....i had this 10 gallon tank for quite sometime..(and it wasn't OVERSTOCKED), till a friend of mine could't afford to keep his fish anymore...so as a good friend i took what he had, even though i knew it was too much....i knew they would die sooner or later because of his situation, so i took them into my care.....5 months down the line they're are all still alive and happy...i change water every other day... (p.s. i cant afford a bigger tank at the moment).....
