I'm glad it's not just me that finds this difficult. So is it just
water changes if I overfeed? My son said they would pop if they ate
too much - he's only 5(!) and I said that I didn't think they would but
it worried me slightly.

=======================
I feed them until they all have nicely rounded bellies. Not that they look
like balloons, but until they look a bit rounded. I feed twice a day,
sometimes 3 times - all they can consume per time. Nothing is wasted.


Yet oddly you have algae anf high nitrates. Hmmmm....

Uneaten food causes cloudy water. So does lots of fish wastes.
