Brown Spots on my Anubias

Help! My anubias seems suddenly ill. It has brown spots on leaves and edges. There are some yellowing leaves but that could just be old leaves. The brown spots have shown up suddenly. I have been leaving the tank light off during the day when the sun shines into the tank and turning on in the evening. I keep Red Wag Platys and one Placo. I have had the Anubias for almost one year. Help?!

I had that problem some weeks ago. In my tank, the problem was the lighting which was too intense so I change my anubias in a more darker spot...

Yeah could be from to much direct sunlight. Has it always been in the sun? A pic would help diagnose the problem as well.
