Fish Not Making It Past Quarantine

I have a 10 gallon quarantine tank with a heater, seeded sponge filter, and some silk plants. I just got a school of cardinal tetras and I put them in the tank. They all looked healthy at the store and no signs of disease. I dosed the med trio for preventive measures like Cory says. I have also tried dosing salt with no luck. They all die off one by one per day. Water is fine with 0 ammonia and nitrite and 10ppm nitrate 78 degrees. Why do my fish not make it past quarantine?

Do you use a water conditioner like prime when doing water changes at certain times of the year local water company's flush the pipes with high   of chorine  also it possible the they were already in a weaken state and the medication pushed them over the edge or it could be osmotic stock if your LFS water dramatically different yours
