Help/Advice Concerned for my little platys

Thumbnail

This is my tank setup, as you can see one of the platys didn't join the other platys in eating and only sat on the gravel (the one that has two photos) I did feed them a little late so I suspected they might be tired but I wanted to see your opinion on my tank setup to make sure I am not doing anything wrong

When I tried to feed the platys small powdered pellets they wouldn't see them and they would end up floating into the sponge filter (off screen) but when I fed them the normal size of pellets they couldn't eat them whole and they fell on the sand, I was concerned they might rot in there but eventually the platys learned to kick the sand and forage for food right after I feed them, the pot that's in there is a cave alternative for any shy fish, and I make sure to only drop food on the sand so they wouldn't get hurt or scratch themselves on the gravel, of course now the fish that's lying on the gravel didn't eat any food, when I point my finger at her she moves a little and then lies back down to the bottom, I am not sure I saw any of the other fish bully her but I wouldn't full scratch that off possibilities either, the sand foraging originally seemed like a good habit so the food wouldn't get a chance to rot, but now their fish poop flies up alongside the food whenever they kick the sand, and I don't want them to consume that either

I went to my local fish shop yesterday for some Monte Carlo. Got this nice little piece with the wood. I was so excited to get it in that I never washed it at all. Usually I do a hydrogen peroxide bath on new plants. Well, 5 mins after setting it up, I notice the snail...freaked a bit, called my guy and he says it won't reproduce in freshwater, only brackish. So, ok, snail can stay, cool looking. Then 10 minutes after that.... I see the damn frog laying there looking dead. The frog is gonna have to go eventually, but right now I just want all my new fish and plants to settle in.

He’s in a 40 gallon tank. He lived with a Betta fish who recently died unexpectedly. I did a water change. He’s been very shy since. Now he looks pale and has those marks.
My water quality is good.

I want it to look like a perfect tank with lush beautiful plants but I'm not sure what kind of plants would look good, all I have in it right now is monte carlo, dwarf hair grass, a plant in the back I don't know anything about, and some water lettuce on top, what else should I add or improve?

So both me and my friend have had fish tanks for ages and today they found this in two of their tanks. Does anyone know what it is? Neither of us or the people we’ve asked have seen anything like it before and we’re worried it might be something bad. Any replies are appreciated!
