you might try malachite green for your fungus. Fungus is a bigger problem than people think . What you see is the fungus but it's really eating away your fish.
You might want to try salt baths on those fish.
Once they have it cleaning your pond does not help the fungus is now feeding on your fish.

This is the main reason I have a q-tank and a hospital tank. I can catch the fish and put in in the tank a start raising the temps to medicate.

I just keep my 700 gallon q-tank going with no fish in it using small amounts of household non-sudsing ammonia. I keep the temps up to during the winter at about 6o degrees.
