What is going on with my Amazon Swords? PICS

Pic 2, some of the spots look like marking s on 'Ozelot' sword. If the brown spots are slimy, it's diatoms, (very common in new tanks) . They go away with time (months, not weeks IME).

Keep in mind that swords are HEAVY feeders. They like good nutrition and flourish alone won't cut it. Flourish only provides micronutrients. You also need to be supplying Nitrogen , Potassium, and Phosphorus....and carbon.
