My oscas just got over some ich a couple days ago but today I noticed they all have tattered fins but they didn't until after they got ich. It's not fin rot either they just look tattered. But they don't really attack each other. Also their eyes are all cloudy. And the biggest one has white poop. What's wrong with my fish? There are 5 other cichlids in the tank who show none of these symptoms.

Temp has been at 87 degrees for the past 6 days because I've been fighting the ich. I don't have a way to test parameters at the moment.

87F is fine for treating oscars with ich. Only feed the fish every few days when treating at that temperature. Do a 50% water change and bring the temp back up to 87f since you don't know what the ammonia and nitrites are.

Bring your water to the lfs and get it tested for ammonia and nitrites and ph.
 
How were you treating the ich? Also you have to test the water ammonia, nitrite, ntrate, Ph. Sounds like a Ph crash or ammonia spike.
