Can someone give me an idea of what im looking at for a cleaning schedual for the following tank setup
10 gallon tank
Aquaclear 200 filtration system
2 balloon rams
3 Cory cats
1 platy
2 mollies

All the fish are young no larger then 1 inch

I know thees no exact science to the cleaning theres to many variables, But just what you whould do will give me an idea how often to Vacume clean the glass and swap out water.
 
I change 20% of the water once a week, use a Mag-Float to clean the glass daily, and do a good, deep, thorough gravel vac about once a month. If plants are involved you don't gravel vac quite as deeply- you just sort of skim the surface of the gravel with the vacuum/siphon/whatever.
The water changes are the most important bit.
