Never seen it. But the color on all of them is pretty faint as if they are stressed. Mine are very vibrant with vivid lines. Have you checked your water parameters recently?
 
I know they are stressed, just brought these home yesterday from petco. But usually they completely fade out, some of these still have dark spots

Huh, wish I could be more helpful but I don't know why they have freckles. Hope they do alright!

The black spots go away with weekly water changes. The few that I got with them, took about 2-3 weeks to be completely gone.
