What size tank and is it cycled? What type filtration and do you have any powerheads?

Do you have a clean up crew?

Well it's to late to tell you not to cycle with live fish, but I'd add a couple of powerheads to help keep the waste suspended so the filter can get more of it. Assorted snails and hermits would be good choices, but not until the tank has cycled.
