Hi Fishy411 
I think your corys will be much happier in the small tank with more peaceful fish.
The most important thing to do to help them heal is to make sure the water is clean and fresh at all times. A little MelaFix added to the water might be a good idea in this case, but is not actually necessary.
Since they have recently been through a stressful situation, it's even more important that they have extra water changes for the next few weeks until they get themselves back to normal, in order to avoid bacterial infections setting in.
If you can feed them extra live or frozen Blackworms, blood worm or tubifex, this high protien food will help strengthen them and grow back their fins.

Hi Fishy411
I think so. what brand do you have in mind? If you let me know, I'll check the ingredients out the next time I go to the lfs.
Perhaps your mother wouldn't mind the freeze dried tubifex worms. They are dried and pressed into cubes. While there is nothing at all unpleasant about them, they are nutritious and the corys love them.
To feed them, break off a piece and hold it under the water until it becomes moist. Then rub it between your fingers and shake it until the individual pieces seperate. Your other fish will eat them while they are suspended in the water and your corys will eat the ones that reach the bottom.
