Yup here
It happens and it's upsetting, especially to people new to the hobby.
My first batch of fish had columnaris and I lost most of them, mostly because I was new and didn't recognize the signs right away, wasn't inspecting them closely enough, didn't even realize they were symptomatic, etc. Then I made the classic newbie mistake of just replacing them, and they got sick, and then I reached out for help and figured out what was happening. It almost put me off fishkeeping before I'd barely started but I'm glad I stuck it out. Hang in there. 馃槈
If you are new, please also know that you should dip and QT live plants before adding them to your tank. It's a very common mistake new hobbyists make after they realize the plants brought snails, ich, planaria, etc.
Prazipro is $11.79 on Amazon if you shop there. I typically do 3 doses. One bottle is more than enough for that.
Okay here is a list of supplies off amazon:

For what you have now you can (and should really tbh) still soak in tank water before feeding. Its hard to know how much to feed with flakes, ill always prefer pellets for fish but hmm.. Idk try like 3 medium pieces ? I really am not sure
Check out PraziPro
Weird, comes right up for me https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004LOBGYA/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_l9WOBbZNVWPC0
ok, I guess if it's cycled, it'd be 0 then. I was thinking maybe internal parasite then. Sometimes fish can come in with them. I don't, but I know that many people treat new fish for it even if they don't know just to be sure. Observe if it has long stringy whitish poop.
PraziPro is one a lot use and the other is Paraguard is the other one in case you decide to treat tank.
I just dealt with gill flukes. I used Prazipro and everyone is much better now. It's a great medication because it doesn't mess with your beneficial bacteria and you can use it with inverts & cories. Just be sure to remove your carbon/purigen before you dose!
try treating with prazipro

I've used this before.
I've never tried to mix treatments before. But if you can, treat as much as you can.
Before I buy it, this is what you mean?
The photo clearly shows damaged gills and dormant behavior. Flukes infestation combined with ammonia typically leads to that. It appears as if a fungal infection is kicking in. (Flukes slowly kill and cause tons of fungal infections in the process)
OP, your best bet is going with Hikari's PraziPro or Seachem's Paraguard, stress coat, and serving soft fruits / vegetables to boost the immune system. Then dose Seachem's Kanaplex separately to deal with the fungus.

https://www.amazon.com/Kanaplex-5-g-0-18-oz/dp/B00CJ0VY8G/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?
BTW, can you show off photos of the entire body for better judgement? If it's ICH, Hikari's Ich-X alone would beat the daylights out of the ICH and fungus at the same time.
https://www.amazon.com/Hikari-USA-Inc-Ich-Treatment/dp/B00176I3UA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?
But be careful, while it's highly effective, Ich-X contains some cancerous stuff to human health. I recommend to go with Seachem's Paraguard for ICH, but it will take longer. You can combine Paraguard with Kanaplex to deal with bacterial infection if that's the case, but make sure to pump oxygen in the take since meds reduce it.
