Oranda problems septicemia and dropsy

White spot turned black, the redcapped and black one flash, red cap has red streaks in fins, black one has been lethargic, em erythromycin was not very effective. Did full treatment and didn't see a whole lot of change, the white blotches turned black, but flashing continues.

UPDATE 11/11
- I rehomed all three Oranda's to someone on a local fish forum who has had success with Koi, he says that they are doing well. Proir to him taking them, the Red Capped was no longer showing signs of Dropsy, I believe that was because of the Maracyn 2 he was being treated with and the other 2 seemed to be almost fully recovered. We gave them away as we didnt want to have to deal with the health problems associated with this species of fish any more, but will surely miss them all. they are a very personable fish with clear intelligence to back it up.
