Corry catfish black spot

[Catfishs]

I just got albino Corry cat fish from petco. They got a brand new shipment, and within about 4 hours at home 2 of 6 passed away. They seemed healthy and active like the others. They each had two black spots above the eye brow. I would love to know what it could mean. Should I treat the other fish?

The fish are dead and I don't have photos the water was perfect. It is a 5 gallon quarantine. Two more without the spots died this morning. Yes, I did use water conditioning

Your tap water from your sink is not cycled and has deadly chlorine/chloramine that can and will kill fish unless you treat it with a dechlorinator.

0 nitrates worry me.
Wondering : You ask us a question and then seem to be hesitant to provide any information needed to give an answer.
How do you expect us to do so ?

You bought sick fish. You don't need to test the water.

The black spots mean nothing.
