I've had my tank up and running for almost a year, but last week i noticed that 2 of my neon's had some sort of fungus growth on them. So I went and bought some fungus eliminator (Jungles fungus eliminator). Everything was fine until a few days ago when 1 of the cherry barbs I had died, and now the other one is sick. She's having trouble swimming, every time she swims she jerks. I don't know if it's some sort of reaction to the fungus medication or what. Please any help would be appreciated.
 
My barb is less jerky now, maybe it will go away with time (I hope). I have a 10 gallon, and none of my other fish are affected. I can't tell you my water parameters, don't have a test kit :( , but i can tell you is that I was supposed to do a 25% water change before adding the fungus eliminator. Four days later, as the bottle directed, I did another 25% water change and added another dose.
