Found a dead albino cory in my tank today. They've been in the tank for about 3 weeks. The tank is well established, planted, and healthy. Weekly water changes, all the other fish are active, bright, and healthy. The other corys seem fine as well.
Water parameters are: Ammonia 0, nitrites 0, nitrates under 20, PH 6.5, KH 120, GH 120.

Hard to say. It could have had a parasite or disease from the LFS.

I had a similar thing happen with some emerald corys I bought from Petco a few years ago. I bought 6. One died in about a day and another a few weeks later. The remaining 4 live on.
