Help Needed Identifying Plants

[tintin]

Hi,

I'm trying to catalogue/research the plants in my tank and it feels like looking for a needle in a haystack online.

I wondered if there is anyone in the know who might be able to help identify what I have?

Note: Although the leaves of plants 1 and 2 look the same, I wondered if they are different as the stems on no. 1 are thicker and less plentiful?

Anyway, any info much appreciated.

1.

2.

3.

4.

TT.

1.

>>some kind of crypt
2.

>>another sort of crypt
3.

some (rather sickly) looking anacharis(aka elodea)
4.

>>a sword of some type.

...sorry cant give specific latin names, but only general common genus names. someone a bit more "planty" will surely be along. at least you have an idea of what is in the tank.
cheers

Thanks for your help.

I've managed to track down all but no. 3 which I can tell you is definitely not anacharis.

Below is hopefully a clearer photo. Can anyone help with this last query?

Thanks for your input. Yes, now i've looked it up I would go for the Rotala also. My red nose shrimps have stripped it bare mind so I don't know how much longer it will be in there. As for your other guesses, yes, I had Ozelot Sword and Wendtti. I did wonder if the other one was Petchii rather than being the same.

im pretty sure its the same
my two crypt wendttis look alittle also, but they are the same plant
i looked up petchii and seemed from the pics on google to have fatter leaves,
and maybe more of a red?
