I’ve noticed this on some of my tridents. Is this fungal? I’ve been spraying regularly with Daconil so a bit surprised. 3BFDDD05-AF64-4C63-AACC-6AEEBD5CE06B.jpeg

I used to have a black spot problem until I started watering only with RO water. No more black spot since then.

Looks fungal to me. I'd cut off all the affected leaves and continue to spray weekly/biweekly with Daconil.

As Boon says “the worst thing you can do is nothing”.

To me it looks like a possible three issues at play. The brown tips “could” be anything from too much high intensity sunlight to too much water. The light green spots looks like a water issue, either too much chlorine or too high pH. And the tiny black spots looks like black spot. No pun!
^~~~daconil ? and RO wtr would be my first line of defense.
