What kind of nutes are you using and are you using and micro nutes? It looks like Mg deficiency to me so if you are not using micro nutes, you should really get some or epsom salt or Cal-Mag. Also, be careful with putting the frozen water bottles in the res. The roots won't like it if they touch it and will be shocked and stop growing in that spot for a while. Otherwise, they look good.

Sometimes roots turn brown and nothing is really wrong. If the roots are slimy, you have a problem. If not then you should be ok, but look at the rest of the plant. Is it a good color? Are the leaves strong with no drooping or curling?

They look good, just a little nute burn it looks like. Could be from too high of nute dose, high or low pH, or pH fluctuation. Try not to change pH by more than .5 at a time.
