Dirty goldfish tank

Hi, I have a goldfish tank which is very dirty. Its a rusty red colour. I have a filter and have replaced the sponge inside, its just a little filter but i clean it about every 2-3 weeks. Also i bought a batteryvac for the tank and have used this once. I put stress coat and water ager chlorine neutraliser in the water, and change about 1/3 of the water each week. There are 5 goldfish in the tank, its about 20-25 ltr tank. I dont know whats going wrong, I have once emptied the whole tank and washed the stones and put everything back but i believe this is not good for the fish and the water turned back to rusty red within a week or so. How to i get a nice clean tank?? I dont know anything about testing the water.
i used to have a smaller little plastic tank and this never happened before.

Any ideas??
