I will leave you a link to finrot, but the melafix might clear it up, watch out for red edges as that septicemia, good on you, poor things.

Not sure what it is used for but is sounds something like that interpet med tonic, for parasites,fungus, and bacteria.

ok so is back normal around the fins i thought it might be some sort of fungus or rot?

 

[WILDER]

Black edges to fins are not normal but the melafix might clear it up, if no changes in a couple of days you will need to medicate with a finrot med, good luck.

if the fish already had the black around the fins when you bought it then it could be the last of its baby colouring going. it could also be healing marks left by high ammonia so the best you can do for that is keep the water really clean.
maybe they are sitting on the bottom more because the water is straight from the tap and could be a bit cold for them. fantail types like water to be warm rather than cold.
missing scales could be due to catching on ornaments or another fish getting a bit bossy. keep an eye on it and see that it doesnt lose any more or it could become a problem.
congrats for rescuing them though.
