Aquatic? Did you even do your research? The Drell have Kepral's Syndrome because of the moisture in the air. They're not aquatic at all.
Saving the drell? Why can't we do this?

She has a point tough.
The hanar are not interested in helping the drell colonize more arid planets because that would mean giving up the benefits of the Compact.

From the things Thane says, the drell themselves aren't interested in separating themselves from the hanar either.

Their culture encourages servitude. But I doubt there aren't drells who want to be independent. If anything, to live in a world where breathing doesn't kill them

Do you have an estimate of their population? Quite a few were left on their homeworld to die.
The Drell need treatment, which the Hanar should be attempting and using.
They chose to do this to the Drell, they should be taking care of them. In turn the Drell should continue assisting the Hanar.
If you could get a viable group to leave the Hanar, you might see something interesting. But I don't think it's going to happen.

I think that's too overt. The drell have a huge sense of obligation to the hanar for saving their entire species, and most of them seem to have no problem serving the hanar. It doesn't sound like there's any obvious coercion on the part of the hanar--Kolyat for example, doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Compact.
It could easily be as subtle as a cultural expectation induced during childhood.
Sorta like how girls are encouraged to be pink and froofy and like cooking and children, and guys can't ask for directions.

But subtle coercion is still coercion. Drells have been reduced to servants.

The hanar may not even be doing it on purpose, just like the cultural conditioning we get isn't exactly on purpose. It's still there, sadly, but you'd have to get a global mental shift in order to change it.
I'm not a fan of forcing freedom on someone who isn't interested in it. I think the drell really should do something more about their condition, but short of confronting every one of them individually about it, I don't see how it would come about.
Thane is there to talk to and is happily able to wake up enough to realize he could do more with himself than he does.

Leading cause of death among drell. Kinda a bigger deal than infertility.
Infertility that would have caused the eventual EXTINCTION of the krogan species. Anyway, it's technically not infertility, krogans are fertile, the genophage caused the majority of their unborn children to fail to survive to term.
BTW, the genophage is also the leading cause of death among krogan as it kills 999/1000 of their unborn children, kinda a bigger deal than Keprals methinks

It sort of depends on how you want to look at it.
The Genophage kills 99/100 Krogan unborn children but as Wrex suggests in ME3 and just simply their numbers presented in the series itself, The Krogan are able to reproduce extremely quickly. This will cause the EVENTUAL extinction of the species as a whole....EVENTUALLY. That could be a couple hundred years from now depending on the current population.
Kepral's Syndrome seems to be a near species-defining trait. The illness is a build up of moisture in the lungs from just normal air we are used to breathing in; like the Citadel, Earth, Thessia, and Omega. I'd imagine that the time for it to kill a drell depends on location.
Spending time on Tuchanka could possibly prolong the eventual death while Kahje, a mostly swamp like environment, would probably kill very quickly.
Considering Thane gives himself well over a year at the beginning of ME2 (8-12 months before his really labor intensive work will be too much for him, suggesting he could have two years from ME2 at most.
We don't have that great of statistics on Kepral's.

No, the genophage itself was never going to cause the extinction of the krogan. Mordin is very clear on this. He was going for stabilizing their population, not exterminating it.
