I have two plants in my 12G that I have no clue as to what they are. Can anyone ID these for me?

#1, which we bought at Critter Jungle about 6 months ago:




#2, was a hitchhiker that started with a 2" sprig:

The first one looks like some sort of Rotala, possibly Rotala rotundifolia, but not certain.

The second one appears to be Najas guadalupensis, also known as Najas or Guppy Grass.

It is amazing how quickly Guppy grass grows isn't it.

I think the same on both counts  ;), the guppy grass is for sure & I`m pretty confident the Rotala is rotundifolia - as you stated it came from CJ who has a big farm of it  :)

Thanks, Errol, for the ID confirmation. Sue, I'm grateful it grows fast as it's helping keep my baby Endlers alive. :)
