so this is my tank and my betta Filbert what so u think?
 
Nice tank. It appears you have two false aquatic plants at the back in the middle which must be removed. Those with the leaves at the white edges and another with red coloration appear to be house plants to me. Hornworts must remain floated as they cannot establish roots and the bottom part is bound to rot anyway.
 
all of the plants are real actually i cant stand false plants
 
Any close shots of all your plants? I still have a shrewd idea some of your plants are not truly aquatic. How did you know they are true aquatic? The only plants I can really recognize are the hornwort and Bacopa monnieri.
 
also all of the plants where bought from a huge aquatics centre. the hornwort is only loosely on the ground it is not planted in the gravel filbert likes to move the plants around u see.
the firts two pics are wht it looks like noe the latter two in the firts post aren when i firts put filbert in
 
Just because all those plants came from the aquatic center doesn't mean all plants are guaranteed to be true aquatic. Many fish stores will still sell you false aquatic plants even if they know what they are doing is unethical or simply that they are ignorant of the fact research is very important. I've never seen those two plants in the aquarium before. They just look vaguely house plants to me.

Refer to this photo...

This photo does indeed show the Echinodorus sp. at the left side which is a true aquatic plant however the rest of your photos showed you seem to have replaced it unless my eyes are getting dim.
 
thanks digital! if they were house plants why havent they died if house plants are watered too much they die trust me i know from experience. there are some house plants that do indeed look like these but in the circumstances they are in they would be pure mould by now
 
Nice tank. How long have the plants in question been in there?
