Knowing specific water parameters can help determine the proper course (and drug type) treatment.
Simply stating they are 100% does not help in that regard.
And 100% can be subjective.
Some aquarists believe a nitrate concentration of 30ppm is OK, some believe a concentration of 10 is high.
Certain bacteria are known to be more infective at 20ppm or above.
And certain drug treatments only work within a specific pH range.

The tank has also had daily doses of salt 1 teaspoon per 10 gallon it's 500gal so it's a lot of salt

This looks more fungal. Do a large water change, keep the water salted @ 1 teaspoon per 5 gallons. Try API fugue cure, remember to wait about a half hour after adding water conditioner like Prime before adding the meds.
