Also some of my plants are getting brown they where nice when I got them 17days ago from somebody on another forums here are some pictures. I do have some dust algae on the back its turning brown so I heard that's a good thing lol.

Your planting process could have disturbed your substrate enough that would cause a spike in waste in the water column, thus causing a bacteria bloom to stabilize the tank's nitrogen cycle. I would test the water for nitrite levels and do water changes according until it stabilizes again.

Don't think its the substrate also nitrite levels are at 0.
