First and third look like a Nymphae species so Id say yes
The second is called Aqua Fern but is definately not Aquatic strangely as it is named that. It is often sold as Aquatic but dies, rots and pollutes.

I don’t think they are aquatic, if they were Nymphae (lotus/lilly) the leaves would be floppy out of the water, I take it they don’t have a bulb in which case they are definitely not nymphae.
The tall variegated plants and the small grass like plant in your nice hex tank are not true aquatics either, they are often sold as aquatics unfortunately.

Petco is really bad about selling the plants that aren't really aquarium plants. I have more luck getting plants from people online at the forums and from a couple of little LFS that actually know the plants. What size is your tank?
