Welcome aboard

Yes a 10 gallon will be ok but you will need to change out water every other day to keep water from rising Ammonia, and Nitrite. Do you have a freshwater test kit?

Awesome, cause thats the only tank i have available to treat fish in. Im going to be getting one as soon as i can get to the store. Just ran out of strips. I know their not the best but they have been working great for me!

can treat with salt ( 3 tsp per g and temp of 86) and heat. Temp increased slowly and salt added over a day. Or meds like seachem paragaurd or ich-x. If the fish recover then consider long term what ur planning to do with the fish. Need big tanks and good filtration.

No, not salt.
Baby silver aro can't handle salt.
