Hi,Well as title says, can someone help me work out what kind of plants these are? Sorry photos are not the best but any ideas perhaps would really be good
Thanks in advance! I think one might be an amazon sword but not sure!
The tall one is some sort of amazon sword im sorry, i dont know exactly what kind. And the other one is posibly ludwigia Repens or at least somesort of ludwigia not exactly possitive of what type.

the first one isn't an amazon sword, it's not an aquatic plant at all i'm afraid, i can't remember the name but i got conned into one of those once as well. it's not true aquatic though and won't root.
this is an amazon sword:
the second i can't tell i'm afraid.

the first one looks like a draceana (spelling) which will rot in a few months, just pot it and put it in your window.
cant help with second.

I dont think the first plant is dracaena. But what should i do with it? I have had this plant in my other tank for about 3months now and its growing and growing and that is a cutting. Suggestions?

If it's growing then leave it, sometimes terrestial plants can change to submerged life but most rot.

The pointed sharp leaf plant is not aquatic and will screw up your water by rotting
The round leaf stubby plant is Aquatic and will grow better if it is gravel sizing from 2mm-3mm or substrate with plant nutrients.
As the sand compacts the roots and cuts off oxygen
