Most of the damage seem to be healing up but 3 sd's appear to be picking on one. Isnthere a chance the bullying wont stop ? Should I do some salt baths to help heal him up and should I move him to another tank that houses angels and clown loaches ?

Going to isolate the one that is getting a beaten and looks like the fin rot isnt improving in the 30 gal. The remaining three look like they are getting better

I heard you should keep SDs in bigger groups, minimum 6. When their numbers are smaller they turn on each other. Maybe just find some cheaper SDs to add to the group, I know Tigers can be expensive.

looks to be ammonia burn combined with damage from handling them from and to your tank. Should heal up with extra water changes and a little salt.
 
Removed them from the main tank and have all in quarantine looks like some sort of parasite. Gonna treat the quarantine with parasite gaurd. Treating the main tank with heat and salt for ich....I deserve this for not quarantining these fish
