Bristlenose are fine with most small schooling fish I have kept mine tetras barbs gourami livebrearers never had any problems as long as you have plenty of cave's and wood for them they will be fine

What I would do is quarantine your CPD as it's only effecting them and it's been happening over a long time and none of your other fish have been effected I don't think that's columnaris theirs two things it could a bacterial infection some parasitic infection can cause over product of the mucus coating that can cause these grey flat patches first I would recommend treating with kanaplex and Jungle fungus clear fizz tab's containing nitrofurazone following this treatment plan that @Chick-In-Of-TheSea recommended it very effective treatment for more severe bacterial infection then I would follow up with a another course of the medicated flubendazole flakes feed every over day for 5 days then repeat in 2 weeks @Chad

Looks like fin rot that's starting to turn in to body rot as most cases of fin rot are caused by gram negative bacteria I would treat with kanaplex and Jungle fungus clear fizz tab's containing nitrofurazone following this treatment plan when it turns into body rot it can be more difficult to treat needs a more broad spectrum antibiotic treatment @fzs122

as your in Canada You would probably have To see a vet and get a prescription In the meantime I would add some aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 3 gallons that will aid Gill function and add essential electrolytes to give him more energy @Denied Taco

Nitrofurazone can slow the growth of some plants but they usually recover fine @Stella

Possible columnaris it spreads more quickly at higher temperatures very contagious depending on the stain it can kill your fish anyway from 24hr to 7days the most effective treatment is kanaplex and Jungle fungus clear fizz tab's containing nitrofurazone following this treatment plan @Stella
-
It could be the start of a cancerous growth or a benign growth they are really in common in Betta's you could do a course of maracyn2 active ingredient is minocycline that has proven effective at shrinking some types of lumps @Denied Taco

Possible injury looks like he might have dropsy with the pineconing what I would do if you can is quarantine and treat with kanaplex in food feeding a small amount twice a day for 7 days if not eating dose the tank that will treat any possible internal bacterial infection follow up with a course of metroplex that treats aeromonas a common cause of dropsy and do Epsom salt baths 1 table for 2 gallons for a couple of days that will help reduce the fluid buildup and acts as a muscle relaxant to relieve pressure on the swim bladder @Aiden Carter

The active ingredient levamisole can be harmful to some types of snails such as rabbit and mystery snails it will slow shrimp down @Latishcia

With more severe cases of fin rot treat with kanaplex in food and salt feeding a small amount twice a day for 7 days you can leave any leftover medicated food in the fridge
