# 2 might be rotala rotundifolia
# 3 looks like hydrocotyle tripartite
#4, # 7 look like dwarf sag
# 5 looks like a sword of some type
#6 might be jungle val
#9 looks like java moss

Agree with Brian and Errol for the most part - I think 8 is a crypt of some sort though.

I think you are right, after a closer look it`s definitely not glosso.

Ok so here we go.
#1 tennelus ? from Errol
#2 rotala rotundifolia Yes the red sp./var. from Critter Jungle
#3 hydrocotyle tripartite ? from Errol
#4 dwarf sag ? from Errol about 7-10"
#5 sword of some type ? from Errol
#6 jungle val ? I believe from Dxpert
#7 dwarf sag ? I believe from Dxpert
#8 cryptocoryne parva yes from Critter Jungle
#9 java moss from Errol wasn't sure the type of Moss

#4 and #7 are in the same tank and get the same amount of light! Could one be a dwarf variety?

Are you using ferts?  Maybe it's accumulating in the corner so that's why those are bigger?

Ok so there was some confusion on my part! #4 is about an inch tall. #6 and #7 are the ones that look the same! #4 are the plants in the background of #6.

As for ferts i use Flourish Excel twice a week.

If #6 is jungle val, then yes it will be a lot taller.  When I kept jungle val, I had it growing up and then across the surface of my 90 gallon so they were close to six feet long.

Excel is only a liquid source of carbon, not a fert, if that's all you're adding I would suggest also adding flourish comprehensive.

I guess i should be on the lookout for some Comprehensive then!
