Double check the roots and make sure they’re not mushy… if they are, just trim them off.  
Potentially use some root strengthen.  
I wonder if they could also “just be the weaker leaves”…

Or depending how long it's been in the water, could be lack of nutrients

I’m not sure what kind of plant that is, but it looks, to me, that maybe it’s time to pot it; it has plenty of roots, as far as I can see. You can do what the previous Planta member suggested, check the roots, and trim them if they are mushy and it’s probably overdue for some food. You can also use a root strengthener to help it get established and grow strong roots.  
Good luck! 🤗💚🪴

You have to fertilize it as soon as the roots appear.
