No need to worry, it's typical for aclandiae and some of it's hybrids to have black spotting on the leaves.

Hello!
I'm hoping that soemone more knowledgable with cattleya's can help me. I have a Cattleya aclandiae mix and I noticed that there are little black spots on 1-2 of the leaves. THen I noticed that the tips of the leaves are all black now too.
SHould I be worried? I read in a few websites that the black on the tips may be because of overwatering or salt in the water. But then I read somewhere that it may be fungus. This is one of my first cattleyas. I don't want to kill it. Any help on what I should do would be greatly appreciated.
Below are pics of the leaves. (I'm sorry they are blurry! But I think you can see the spots and the leaf tips.)
Thank you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my post and pics! You saved me from some all-night worrying!
I was wondering about the same thing . Thanks for the Info. Gin
Thank you as well! I was so worried when I saw these on my Cattleya today. I really want to do well by my plants and keep them happy and healthy! Thanks!
