Bacteria Problems

[mattcarpenter100]

Hi I have a few problems with my guppies.....one that i have has a hole/indent in its side and two others have what looks like nipped tails and they have whiteness on their tails. I think i can use some anti bacterial treatment to treat it, but id like to know whats caused it and any other suggestions to cure...
