Howdy,
   Without seeing the tank, my guess is that you are overfeeding your 
fish which raises the nitrogen content in the water.  This tank must 
also be getting *ALOT* of light.  

              1.  Replace as much of the water as you can.  Be careful
                  of the temp. and clorine of the new water.
              2.  Feed so that all of the food in gone in about 5 min.
              3.  Reduce the amount of light.  (eg. no direct sun 
                  light and turn off the overhead at night.

Have fun!
