    Why would you buy fish that are in bad shape? you are not going to like the answers you going to get.

    If it was my choice I would cull them. In your case keep them in a separate tank( a 20 gallon will fine)Do 100% water changes Daily using clean water, preferably aged and preheated.Use salt at 1 tablespoons per 10 gallons.Next treat them with Furan 2 or KanaPlex by Seachem.
