If by tetra fish you mean neon tetras, then once a day might be too much. They are very small and therefore eat very little. Unless you also have other fish in the tank, the food you give them will sink to the bottom and force you to clean a cloudy tank more frequently than you want to do it. Make sure you pair them with at least one algae eater. Kuhli (Coolie) loaches are ultra cool! They also do well with swords, platies, angelfish, mollies, danios (I love pearl danios) as well as many others. Do not introduce a goldfish to your tank as your tetras will become lunch! Been there, done that. :(

a 50% water exchange is in basic terms too plenty and can reason your tank to have a bacterial bloom, and subsequently your cloudy water. As you have been advised, you have too many fish for tank this length. those goldfish can advance over 12" long each. 2 fish may well be the max on your tank. Weekly water transformations ought to stay between 15-20% of your tank quantity, until you have a catastrophic journey that calls so which you could exchange out extra (such as you drop a bottle of a few air purifier interior the tank or something) once you pull out 50% of the water, you're removing the ammonia this is mandatory to feed the sturdy micro organism. while they have not got nutrition, they die off, and then because of the fact the ammonia is replaced interior the water, the sturdy micro organism ought to advance lower back, subsequently your cloudy water, bacterial bloom.

Iv heard that you should feed them 2-3 times a day.... but the rule is to use one flake of food per fish.... so 6 flakes each time.... and the food should be gone within 5 minutes ... any uneaten food should bee removed.

I only feed my fish 1 time a day, it helps keep the waste down in the tank.

Feed them once a day...put just enough food in the tank to where there is no food left after say 2 minutes. Overfeeding can cause the fish to develope other diseases.

Feed them 2 or 3 times a day. When you feed them, feed them one flake at a time, and once they consume one give them another until they start to lose interest in the food.

2 times a day and not too much, I have the same amount and fish I've had them for 6 years. they can die from being over fed. and it will save you alot of cleaning. most of the crap on the bottom and everywhere else is from food.
