Just got my order through from Last Trading Post. I told him roughly what i wanted, and asked for a wide range of plants. And that is what i got! Only issue is, i have no idea about each one! No idea if its for front middle or back!

Please help my ID them so i can get planting in the right place!

All i know is that the order includes the following - Echinodorus tenellus and E.quadricostatus, a Nymhpaea rubra bulb - i think the bulb is easy to spot!

1 and 2 look like crypts, 13 looks like hornwort, 18 looks like sag, some of 17 is chain swords some is sag, 16 crypt and 10 looks non aquatic to me but I may be wrong.
 
1) Some sort of Crypt
2) Cryptocoryne undulata
3) Hygrophila polysperma
4) Amazon sword
5) Indian fern
6) Aponogeton crispus
7) Aponogeton crispus
8) Nymphaea lotus (zenkeri)
9) Mexican oak?
10) Hygrophila stricta
11) Ludwigia repens
12) Dont know
13) Egeria of some sort
14) Cobomba
15) Rotala rotundifolia
16) Crypt balansae
17) Pgymy chain sword in emersed form
18) sagittaria of some sort
19) Crypt of some sort

Easier once they grown in
 
I think number 9 is hygro difformis (water wisteria) in emersed form and number 12 is another hrygo species.
 
Thanks for the replies.

I had to go with my gut feeling about where to plant them for starters. Couldnt see into the tank by the end ddue to the soil kicking up despite my best efforts.

Should be clear tongiht and i can see what has stayed down and what hasn't!

BUT, this morning (all be it at 6am) i noticed the small plant in number one has been destroyed already! leafs lying on the substrate and roots up in the air! Could this have been the work of my Pakistani loaches? I thought they would be ok!

Some leafs of some plants are brown already too, so some maintinance is needed tonight already!!

Is it worth getting a couple snails to clean up the rotting leaves, or what? I want this to be heavily planted, so spotting every dying leaf for removal will be a hard job!
