You need to seperate them! It sounds like it's already too late for the one irr shark. I'm unable to tell if the gill problem is from the attacks or an internal parasite in the gills.

Irridescent Sharks are the scaredy-fish of the tank! They are skittish and easily scared. They are peacful, but when cramped... they normally declare territorial war
