The less you mess with your water the better things will be for you and your fish. A varying pH value will make for sick fish very quickly. Most reticulated (tap)water is OK for the vast majority of fish species. All you should need to do is make sure that when you first set up the aquarium and when you do large water changes, any Chlorine is either chemically neutralised by adding a "conditioner" or allowed to evaporate off. If you are having pH variations in an already established tank, you could use a pH stabiliser block/buffer. These are fairly cheap and should keep the water around pH7. I believe there are also various different blocks available that will actually adjust the water to suit both Alkaline and Acid loving fish too.

What disease is it when there is no fish in your aquarium yet your aquarium plants have brown stuff on a few of their leaves and how do you get rid of it?

The "brown stuff" should not be a disease, it's called algae. To get rid of this, move your aquarium away from sunlight and make sure those plants are safe for aquarium use. If you can't move the aquarium away from sunlight, use some medications for your fish tank at your local fish store.
