A club for owners of Parrot Cichlids

I don't know how to explain this any better, but I have had my BP for over a year now. She has been doing quite well up until recently (the winter).

She was bright and vibrant, laid eggs often, and quite personable (I could feed her from my hand).

I keep up on my water changes (33% change every 2 weeks with 2 new filters), use aquarium salt, and keep the tank at a constant 80F.

I had 300 litre tank and has 4 of 4
 inches parrot cichlids. They are not eating
 for 2-3 weeks now. I found they had
 parasites and redness on the back of their
 ear fin. They had medicine from the vet for
 parasite and antibiotic last week but they
 still not eating and not swim around just stay behind the rock on the bottom of the tank
How can I make them eat
 again. Am I gonna lost them all?

I know there are many questions relating to the same issue, however I am asking because maybe there are factors involved I am unaware of. However, any time I post to a fish forum I always seem to be riduculed and dubbed a horrible person. I have never done anything to intentionally hurt or upset my fish so please when responding, be nice. Id really love to make fellow fish owner friends but the majority seems to make it near impossible to do.

I have a 45 gallon tank set up with 4 parrots, 2 jewels, 1 angelfish, 2 guaramis, 1 iridescent shark, and 2 blue rams.
