bubble wand.

I went to walmart today with my grandma and picked up a air pump and bubble wand/wall/bar
thing. And a small heater for my 10 gallon. I am satisfied. Also, I put some of NitraBAN to get rid of the foggy water and so far nothing changed =(. oh well

The aquarist's best friends are patience and partial water changes. Well.... maybe the magic bubble wand too.

I think the same thing as johnarthur about the bubble wand/wall/bar.

I have definitely found that water changes make a world of difference in a cloudy tank. I have used nitraban to help stabilize the water in my my tank but as for clearing the water it didn't do much. I found that with frequent water changes I don't need to add anything and I haven't really had a problem with cloudiness. I have a shelf full of chemicals that really never did what they were supposed to. A daily 20% change for a week will def solve your problem. And the bubble wand/wall is great, it made a huge difference in my community tank. Good luck.

I tried the Nitraban stuff yesterday but how do I check the nitrate levels and ammonia and nitrites I have no clue. i feel real left out

Most places that sell aquarium stuff also sell water test kits. For nitrate, nitrite, pH and other parameters, there are some strips that you dip into the aquarium. The water then turns different parts of the strip into different colors, and you compare those colors to a chart that comes with the test strips. Most of those dip kits don't test for ammonia. For that, you need to get another kit which has a small test tube and a chemical reagent. You dip some water out of the aquarium, add a few drops of reagent, wait a few minutes for the water to change color, and compare that color to a chart in the test kit. You can get some very elaborate test sets, but the cheap ones are OK and the most important things are zero nitrites and zero ammonia. Some aquarium shops will also test your water for free, and they sell all kinds of chemicals that adjust bad water parameters. The best way to fix water parameters, however, is a series of partial water changes. Usually, bad aquarium water is the result of bad maintenance, which means not enough partial water changes.
