How do i give my tetras a salt bath / really sick fish

Ive posted this on multiple places and i keep not getting a single answer and my fish are actively dying one after another, my fish look very sick and some are insanely bloated and some are very thin so im assuming dropsy for some and from what i know they need a epsom salt bath but i dont know how much epsom salt + water is right and i dont wanna go off of what the ai thing on google tells me, any help is appreciated

Please ignore how dirty my tank looks i was gone for a few days and had the lights on (they were still fed daily)

Pigeon scared/aggresive towards me

I got both my pigeons on june 23th 2025 and since then ive been able to hardly make any progress with them getting to trust me, i have a male and female the male is the scared/aggresive one and the female is less scared and will jump onto my arm if i wait a little (she isnt aggresive either shes only pecked me when i went near her nest but she had eggs so that makes sense) though if i go near her with my hand she still runs away pretty fast, the main problem is with my male pigeon he just doesnt trust me and full on bites me and wing slaps me non stop (he bites HARD im suprised he hasnt made me bleed yet) if i even try and get near to change the food for example or even try to give him a peanut (which they love), and im just a bit lost on what to do cause i love him a ton but hes just scared of me and doesnt like me

Extra info:

their cage is in my room and im in there almost 24/7 literally so its also not like he never sees me i try to talk to them , give them treats very often , try and train them (at the moment the "training" is just flying to my hand , and im in the cage often to do maintenance (fully clean the cage twice a week and spotclean throughout the week) and ofcourse i refresh their water/food/grit daily

Info about pigeons:

the black one is a 5 year old female and the brown one is a 1.5 year old male which is the black ones son but they are bonded and have made fertilized eggs (switched them out with fake ones very quickly)

Cage size: 180x70x180 (in centimeters) also a picture shown

i tested my water yesterday cause one of my fish was looking a bit off and weak and turns out my water is 0 ammonia , 0 nitrite , 100 mg/L nitrate (literally the highest on the test card it was dark pink almost red) and im unsure of what to do? do i change my water if so how much

(i retested the nitrate twice and it kept coming out the exact same)

Yesterday before cleaning i noticed a dark green watery poop and now im worried something is wrong, they have acces to fresh water/food daily (i refresh it daily) and i clean their cage twice a week and through the week just spot cleaning, my female pigeon did lay a egg either yesterday or the day before if thats important info (shes laid tons of eggs before this isnt her first time shes 6 years old)

(Please do ignore how crusty the shelf looks it was deepcleaned right after this!!)

If anyone knows what this means it would be super appreciated cause im very close to going to the vet the only reason im not is cause both of them look fine and the rest of the poop looks fine and id rather not spend over 100 euros if it means nothing

Do i add it to their food or a seperate bowl and how much would be good? (Its for 2 pigeons and its colombine grit + redstone + aniseed from versele laga)

Ive been seeing people have a ton of filtration in their tank and i was wondering if i had too little and should get more? I currently have a 50 gallon superfish filter for my 50 gallon tank but i was thinking on getting a 2nd 50 gallon filter?

I have 2 goldfish in there and was also thinking about getting a 3rd but idk if my tank would be too overstocked would appreciate some opinions on if it would be ok to add a 3rd goldfish
