Weather loach fungus spots

My loach is full grown and usually happy always swimming back n forth. I bought 2 more loaches a third of his size and they would swim and rub on each other. Then after 3 months as the babies were getting a little bigger, one had past with half its face discolored and what looked like a burn. I checked heater to see if it was brushed against and harmed him but it wasnt even plugged in. 3 days after i come home from work to find second baby loach floating. His body looked like it had a film and his skin looked like it was shedding. Now my big guy has these ugly pockets on him.
I did 2 water changes and bought imagitarium bacterial remedy to add to tank.
He seems sad and not really eating or swimming around much. Coming up for air i also noticed gravel not sliding off his belly as he swims. Ive done water changes and i also have a green machine running. The other fish in tank seem fine so only loaches have had issues. I also want to add that the pathos plant has been dying too. What happened or whats going on? I can hardly find articles on dojos. Any help would be great.

I'm no expert, but it sounds like your loaches might be facing some health issues. Try keeping an eye on water quality, check for any sudden changes, and consider consulting with a local fish store for more specific advice on dojos. Hope your loaches bounce back soon!

I then tried Interpet Internal Bacteria number 9, which cleared up the red spots after a few days. car games
