    Pic 2: Duckweed
    Pic 3:Probably Echinodorus quadricostatus var. ''magdalenensis''
    Pic 4: Hygrophila difformis
    Pic 5: That's an Endler's guppy isn't it?
    Pic 6: It looks like one of the common fish in LFSes... no name for it though. Can't remember.
    Pic 8: "Koi" variety of platy I guess.
    Pic 9: No idea

    My contributions:

    From |squee|:

    Pic 2: Duckweed. - Not duckweed, could be some form of Salvinia
    Pic 3: Probably Echinodorus quadricostatus var. ''magdalenensis'' - Agree
    Pic 4: Hygrophila difformis - Agree
    Pic 5: That's an Endler's guppy isn't it? - Nope, this look very much like a wild guppy. Btw, it is wild guppy, not 'wild life' guppy. The patterns will vary a little with different individuals.
    Pic 6: It looks like one of the common fish in LFSes... no name for it though. Can't remember. - Think it is a half beak
    Pic 8: "Koi" variety of platy I guess. - Pic 9, is it? Most likely 'Koi' variety swordtail
    Pic 9: No idea - Pic 9 or 10?

    From Quixotic:
    6. Dermogenys pusilla (?) - Yes, should be a halfbeak.
    7. Iriatherina werneri (?) - Probably is. Should be one of the threadfin rainbows
    9. Koi Swordtail - Agree
    10. Tanichthys albonubes - golden variety - Agree. It is the White Cloud Mountain Minnow

    Can I comment? Try to get a more focused pic for better ID-ing. Otherwise, we can only guess from the rough body/fin shape. A good example would be the guppy. A more focused pic would confirm whether it is a wild guppy or an Endler's Livebearer.
