Hard to tell without a closer look at the leaves. Pic below of my Augustifolia. Second. At first glance looks like Rotala Indica but too orange. Possibly Ammania but leaves look a bit narrow. Needle Leaf Ludwigia is another possibility. Third looks like Tennellus to me. Definately one of the small swords. bensaf attached this image: Some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statue.

The second pic, however, is rather hard to tell, as it's actually the roots of the plant!! The third looks like a pygmy chain, but the leaves are a bit broad and the laeves point too far upwards (perhaps just as a result of lower light) for e. tellenus. It's definitely a pygmy sword, though.

The common household plant may be rooted in the aquarium by suspending its stem in the water. New roots will form. The plant does an excellent job of absorbing ammonia, nitrites and nitrates. __________ "To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research." researched from Steven Wright
