Too tough to tell right now but bass number one def has ich

X2 first pic bass has ick, I would focus on getting that taken care of especially since you didn’t quarantine and put them into your community tank, after treatment grow them out some then we can try to id very hard to tell. I always had a soft spot for bass that have a 4th bar.

Raise the tank temp to 87-89 degrees and add salt keep it like this for a minimum of 2 weeks. Once you see the spots on the fishes fins it more than likely is all over the gills move quickly or you will lose your fish.
 
Thanks mate. My heater is at 30deg celcius max, already max it. Put sea salt as well. Tonight will put melafix as well for 7days. *read from website that this product help to heal.
 
Mine looked the same, did the salt /temp treatment from the sticky here, worked great!
