Confict Cichlid with white flaking scales, shredded fins and spreading to other

Jenny (70.27.189.185) -

I started out this summer with a 10 gallon tank and a convict.. Soon after two other convicts were given to me. I noticed a couple months ago that the most aggresive of the three started rubbing against things, and all three had shredded tails and fins.
This is my first attempt at keeping an aquarium, so i've been pretty clueless on what was wrong. I started reading posts online about parasites etc, but there are no pictures available and I had no idea which if any was causing this problem.
I recently upgraded to a 55 gallon tank and added a few more ciclids along with two fungus eaters and a few snails. I noticed again that the most aggressive's convict's scales were turning white, but not really fungusy, and he is almost completely black you can barely see his stripes.
Today the convict died, and i'm worried that this is spreading to the other fish in the tank. I noticed when I took him out that he had a sore behind his gill. One of my new cichlids has started rubbing up against things and his scales are starting to turn white and flaky now too. I'm not sure what I should be treating for, because i don't seem to see any round or wormy parasites attached. I want to add a couple more fish but before I do i want to make sure that my tank is safe to do so. Can you please help me? I've taken a couple pictures of the dead fish's scales, that I can email if that helps.
