1. Sounds like a fungus

Especially if the spots are flaking off. The fungus (the spots) are stealing nutients from the leaves, causing them to look pale, and slowing growth.

There's all sorts of websites regarding citrus issues, and how to identify them (w/ pictures). Just google "grapefruit tree problems".

Not sure how to cure this, because it depends on the type of fungus. But I'd start there. Hope it helps!
