Four different plants, sorry about the picture quality

#1



#2 (some sort of val?)



#3 long stems with tapering oval leaves, tends to grow into a thick clump which can be separated



#4 in a different tank but I'm thinking the same as #3?

My guesses:

1. H. corymbosa
2. Onion plant (was there an onion-like bulb on the bottom?) or Tall sag
3. Definitely a crypt, possibly C. lutea.
4. Ditto.

Nice choices, H. corymbosa is a particular favorite species of mine.

No1 is Hygro Corymbosa in poor health

No.2 hard to tell, looks like the tops have been cut off ? But does like look like some type of Sag.

The crypts may be Willisi ?

If you think that's bad you should see the other one They were in my Asian tank and I made the mistake of moving them to my 29g; the loaches tend to make meals of the plants

looks like the tops have been cut off


I've never trimmed, so that's either the way it's grown, or someone has been snacking in their as well.

Thanks for the replies though, I'm getting ready to order some plants and wanted to make sure of the IDs.
