Their turning brown because algae(most probably diatoms) is growing on them. This is normal, so long as you got light, algae is likely to grow.
Do a search in this forum, there's information regarding tackling of algae problems.

Are you using tap water to top up your tank? Or... are you using tap water to mix with salt mixes, without treating with RO/DI?
