I've tried figuring them out but not sure if I'm right about the names. Could someone help identify from the pics please.

Pongol in my opinion.

Probably Pennywort

Probably dwarf chain sword (should send out loads of runners when it establishes if it is DCS)

If the leaves on this are slowly turning longer narrower and losing their hardness i would guess this is Ludwigia Repens midway from emersed to immersed growth. If the new leaves up near the light go brown on top i'd have more confidence in this guess.

The third picture from the end isnot an aquatic plant I'm afraid. It's a houseplant called Dracaena and they die if you overwater them, so definitely not a permanent aquatic plant. The last picture on your first post is Echinodorus, and the tall grassy looking one behind the no fishing sign is valisneria.

The other one by the no fishing sign looks like lysimachia to me, but I'm probably wrong ;) I'm pretty sure its not pennywort though.

Thanks. Yea I've got it as lysimachia on my profile. As for the one u called echinodorus, I thought was amazon sword. Thankyou Alan79 and fishies86, will update my profile when I get chance. Any ideas on the last (purple) one?

Echinodorus is the Latin name for a sword :) the purple once looks like ludwigia glandulosa to me.
