In one of my 10 gallon tanks 2 gold fish 1 dwarf flame gourmi 3 zebra danios 1 wite cloud that schools with the zebra danios is it over stocked.

yes
gold fish really shouldnt b kept in 10g tanks
the rest of the stock list is great though

Goldfish are really pond fish, and shouldnt be in a 10 gal.
The rest seems ok, except i would really try and give the white cloud a school. Its only schools with your danios because it is desperate.

I'll do graffiti,
If you sing to me in French.

With the goldies, it's overstocked. These guys get big, upwards of 6 inches long. And, they make enough waste to compete with fish twice their size. So in short, they're going to dirty up your tank real fast, and then die soon.

The rest is okay, but give your white cloud some buddies.

Oh, also. Please check compatibility of fish before putting them together. Goldfish and white clouds are coldwater fish, meaning they do best in temperatures below 74 (though some can argue about the white clouds). Danios and gouramis are basically tropical fish, meaning they like temperatures 75 and above. Temperature is very important for successfully keeping fish.
