Default cloudy planted tank

Overfeeding has been ruled out. I feed about 3 times a week and the
fish get just enough to keep them from snacking on one another (there
all small fish anyway). A few pellets hit the bottom for the corys
but other than that, thats all. Will be doing regular water changes
for awhile until I can get it back to its original view. Thought
about putting a carbon filter in to help clear it out but am unsure if
this would help in the long run or not. Anyone else have an idea of
what could be causing this?


Throw a diatom filter on it. In half an hour it
will be crystal clear. Don't be surprised if the
filter turns green.
