Second opinion on IDs needed

I got these last week and I'm trying to ID them still.

I think this first one is either ammannia senegalensis or A. gracillis. It still has its emersed growth on the bottom.


My guess on the next one is hygrophilia corymbosa 'compact'. I currently have H. corymbosa siamensis and the leaves are similar but this one is turning reddish brown, something my siamensis does not do. Pic is not that great.


Last one might be too early to tell. Without a doubt it's a crypt. I'm hoping it's c. parva but may have to wait a while to know for sure. You can judge it's size by the clover in the foreground. Sorry the pic is out of focus a bit.


Any guesses?

The crypt is probably C. parva or C. x willisii. Based on your current pictures I would lean towards C. parva, especially if it stays under 2".

The suspect A. gracilis is doing good so far. Still not 100% sure on it's ID though.


The unknown, possible H. corymbosa is starting to get a very nice bronze color. The leaves look very similar to my H. Corymbosa "siamensis". Is it just a color variety?


H. corymbosa "siamensis" in the same tank.

The hygro may be Stricta instead of siamensis. Are the leaves wider than your siamensis?
