I need help identifying these plants I got.
I also have about 3 or 4 types of Moss, bad picture quality on the moss so it might be impossible to tell what they are..

OK, Here we go :perv:

Well, in 15 you have duckweed (smallest plant), salvinia (next larger), and frogbit (largest). 16 is pelia.
 
Thanks

I was told that the smallest one is not duckweed, it's a different species that doesn't grow fast.
Hard to tell the difference in the picture.
 
6: Looks like cabomba
8: Riccia
15: The big one is frogbit, tiniest one is duckweed
17: Some type of moss
18: Java moss
19: Java moss attached to wood

The fisrt 3 don't look aquatic.

All i can id right now, where did you get these from?
 
I got them from a very nice lady who gave me all these plants or $15 bucks :)

She collect only harder to find plants.

The moss isn't Java moss, one is Flame moss and the others I don't remember what she told me.
 
RE: duckweed, turn one of the plants over. Does it have a pinkish tinge and numerous roots attached to each 'leaf'? If so, it is Duckmeat AKA Giant Duckweed, Spirodela polyrhiza. This plant does grow a little more slowly than ordinary duckweeds (Lemna species) but can still take over.
 
Here are my guesses

1. Alternanthera reineckii
2. Limnophila aromatica
3. Hygrophila sp., either a small polysperma or one of the newer species.
4. E. tenellus
5. This one's going to bug me all day, seen it before but forgot the name.
6. Cabomba furcata
7. Tonina sp. Belem
8. Riccia
9. Hygrophila coymbosa "kompact"?
10. Rotala sp., maybe wallichii or Vietnam
11.
12. Blyxa japonica
13.
14.
15.
16. Monosolenium tenerum - pellia
17. Fissidens fontanus
18. probably java moss
19.
 
Yes it is :) I just hope it stays living in my tank..
