    The first one should be Brown C Wendii, the second one maybe Green C Wendii while the third one should be C Balanse.

    Cheers!

    I think

    2. Cryptocoryne wendtii "green"
    3. Cryptocoryne retrospiralis

    2. walkerii (same, enought little to id)
    3. retrospiralis (or some kind of crispatula)
