Having received today a batch of plants from ebay, I was totally dissapointed. Not only that I didn't received 60 plants as advertised, but the quality is subpar. Before putting them in a separate tank for a few days, I took a few pictures to send them back to the seller because he insisted that they're 60 plants in the pack.
Maybe you guys can help me identify them. Pictures 3 and 4 are Hornwort and Vallisernia, but I don't know about the first ones.
On another note, anyone thinks this is the way 60 plants should look?

I think 18 is cobomba. and the last one some type of vallis aswell.

I dont think the plants in the second pic are even aquatic but could be wrong

I would recommend last-trading-post on ebay for plants
 
Thanks for the answer, I'm waiting for a few more opinions before going to the "last trading post" route.

Some Ludwigia sp., looking very scabby.

The grassy stuff is an Acorus sp., a non-aquatic plant that should be thrown away, and the little one to the left of it looks like Hemigraphis colorata, another non-aquatic.

The other two have been ID'd, the Vallis looks very scabby too...
 
Yeah, non aquatic and unhealthy aquatic plants... Bad feedback for them. :good:

Open a dispute and get some money back!

It's actually a bog plant which has survived in my tank for about 6 months with no problems fully submerged until I decided I didn't want it in there and put it in a bucket in the garden.
