Basically the problem is you have way too small of a tank. Rtcs alone need something around 10'x5' when they are adults...
 
You need much more filtration, and a much, much larger tank. The fish you have chosen are very messy, and get extremely large.
 
Messy fish
a tank that is 2small for them

not enough filtration
thats why ur water are like that
 
80% water change over here would kill the Nitrifying bacteria off. so the murkyness would be from the NH3 etc . what are your levels like?

Smaller 10% changes a day and add something like seachem stability would help. also don't feed them very often , maybe every 3rd day for a wile.

DO YOU REALIZE THAT WATER QUALITY IS AFFECTED BY TANK SIZE AND WHAT'S IN IT??!!!! I'M TRYING TO HELP YOUR SORRY @$$ TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOUR FISH, THAT WILL PROBABLY BE DEAD SOON ANYWAY!!!!!!
 
Though you will need a bigger tank. That is not your problem. When was the last time the filters were cleaned. Are you feeding too much? I think it is one of them or a a combination of both.
 
Is this a new tank setup? How long has it been running?
