This is a potted plant I got. Its in my cichlid tank mostl ycause the cichlids don't seem to think its food. I don't know what is though. I think it may be some kind of cryptocoryne.

This is another plant question, this plant is growing in my 2.5g planted tank, well like a weed honestly...it seems to be growing out of the java moss.

Looks like Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Bronze' to me.

The first plant seems to be a cryptocoryne, but it is hard to tell what species it is exactly. The second plant appears to be hornwort.

Very hard to tell from the picture... The second one is definitely a hornwort, but the first one could be a good old java fern - is it attached to a stone or a dfitwood? Does it send roots that "attach" themselves to any surface, including the gravel, or does it send roots deep into the gravel? If the former, then it is Java fern; if the latter, then it is a type of Cryptocoryne..

I`ll go with Cryptocoryne wendtii for the first one, not sure which variety , the second one i can`t tell from the pic , but i`m not convinced it`s hornwort.

It is in a pot look at the bottom of the plant closely. Is the second Limnophila sessiflora? I've never seen Hornwort rooted - does it?

I assumed that its rooted I can't tell without ripping up the java moss its growing out of. All I know is that its grown a good inch in a day.
