Thank you!
 
1st One looks like Microsorum pteropus to me, could be a species of Echinodorus however, the 2nd one is definitely Anubias, probably nana judging from the 1st picture.
 
Dunno that first pic looks like Echinodorus to me.

I have had these in my tank for quite a while but seen much growth (even with some co2). I bought them as Amazon Swords but not so sure?? The main growth I have is occasionally a very long stem and then more flowers growing off it.... Does that give any further hint as to what itis?
 
1. Possibly, Echinodorus Bleheri - http://naturalaquariums.com/plants/echbleheri.html - Nice plant i have one in my tank and its growing the stalk to the surface that will hopefully flower.

2. Looks like Anubias.

Yes, that is an Echinodorus species then.
