Obviously its super late but yes I believe he sells on aqua bid occasionally. I think his name is dcart something or another. Not sure how regularly he's on there though.
Some fish stores have certain tanks running on the same filter. One of mine literally has every other row on the same filter so when you said every other tank it reminded me of seeing the same thing once.!
Recently I was reading about a type of fish that is extinct in the wild and only the aquarium habit is keep the specie alive. Honestly can't remember which fish. But maybe look into fish like that where breeders make a difference for the species?
As much as I hate to admit it I think everyone who cares for fish knows there is a time when euthanasia is the most humane option and in this case I did. The person who had it also gave me the used products including a bottle of melafix so obviously there were issues in the past, I hate to see...
If those are the water parameters they should be fine. I would keep up on water changes as those fish have a big Bioload and for the time being it is quite a small tank. Some fishes striped darken when they they are stressed so maybe he's just settling in to his new surroundings.

The only worm treatment I've found at my local fish stores is prazipro (haven't been scouring them either, its a local mom and pops) can't speak for the specific worm or if prazi treats it but that's what Ive used to treat for worms just in case, if you want to look into it. Edit to add- I've...
I've used a measuring cup(like a 1/2 cup size) to scoop them out of the bag, I just hold it against the bag at an angle and let the water drain out before adding the fish to the tank.

Edited to add, while I do have mystery snails I'm not sure on the general 'rules' of filters on snail tanks...
