    No. 2 seems to be Echinodorus tenellus, some kind of dwarf form?

    1 and 3 are Cryptocorynes, but I can't differentiate which species :P

    I don't think this is HM.

    I know the plant in my head, but the name isnt coming to me. I've seen a thread for it somewhere.

    I believe this plant stays lower and forms more of a carpet, trimmed over time to keep it as low as you desire. Sorry i can't remember the name of it currently. I'll go have a mooch see what i can find in the forum in terms of I.D

    1) Cryptocoryne wendtii species
    2) Cryptocoryne wendtii sp. (possibly 'Green Gecko' or Cryptocoryne beckettii
    3) Echinodorus tenellus (too small to tell)
    4) Elatine triandra
