If you have just added the med to the tank that can irratate them for a while.
 
I don't think danios have barbels - or at least you can't normaly see them.
I don't think plecos like salt. :p
Your platy with the strange scales may also have dropsy which is caused by internal bacteria. Most of the symptoms are caused by internal bacteria in fact.
I would go by a small heater and move the pleco into a spare bucket. Then treat the main tank with salt, raise the temperature to around 80 deg F and treat for internal bacterial infections. Plecos don't often catch diseases for some reason but you may want to treat it for internal bacteria too - don't add salt.
Your new fish were probably carrying some kind of disease.
Don't keep fish bagged - they'll die.
I think a lot of that was already mentioned but never mind. :)
 
Sorry for your loss.
