I have took it apart and played around with it and not noticed anything, I am starting to think its likely an electrical issue instead. Hopefully someone can advise as I do not have a clue lol

These are leaves from the Sycamore tree.

One teaspoon of aquarium salt per gallon of water is the maximum cories can withstand.

They will likely be ammonia burns, keep water quality top notch and try to eliminate all ammonia from the water. Do not over feed and do regular water changes. Make sure you cycle your tank.

I have a 15 gallon tank with a filter that came with it, it has worked fine for over a year and around 4am a couple of nights ago I was randomly awoken and heard a very loud electricity/sparking sort of noise. When I went to investigate I found that my filter was no longer working. Have replaced...

Also what capacity is your tank?

Could be a problem with your tap water containing lots of nitrates if it is spiking quickly after a water change. Also you mentioned your nitrates went up to 3? If you mean 3ppm that is a perfectly safe amount of nitrates. Edit - Grammar

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like water changes are the way to go, maybe add some live plants to get those nitrates down.

As a rule of thumb I would only give them snails with shells smaller than the fish themselves, they do have a surprisingly large appetite and will eat a large snail. Snails like full grown nerites wouldn't be touched though. My LFS actually used to do the same for me and whenever I would come to...

Possibly a singular dwarf pea pufferfish. I had a group of 4 in a 15 gallon tank and it worked great, unfortunately two ended up jumping out of a tiny gap in the lid on the tank in the middle of the night and died, so do keep that in mind. Also, they ate my cherry shrimp so I would not suggest...

You should do your best to reduce your ammonia levels. Do this by doing a fairly large water change (maybe 50%) and also using a gravel vacuum to get rid of any waste or left over food in your fish tank. Also make sure any dead plants are removed from the tank too. Try to cut down on how much...

I doubt shrimp would be the culprit

It seems like potential ammonia poisoning, but you say all levels apart from nitrate are 0, are you sure your ammonia reading is 0? It could be left over food causing an ammonia spike, you mentioned changing the food just before the problem occurred.

Keep that duckweed under control, it goes mental with good lighting lol

It may be a problem with fin development or a deformity and the fish being off balance. If not I am not so sure, very strange.
