The second picture is definitely Wisteria. The third resembles Sunset Hygro, but I'm not certain. The fourth picture looks like Sword plants, maybe Amazon swords, but thats just a guess.

wisteria as kristen said, Hygro Rose or sunset, same thing (pronounced Rosay) and the sword looks like melon but probably amazon which is more common in large retail fish departments.

Agreed. The sword is a melon sword, which is more and more common nowadays. That is also wisteria. Cant agree with the other hygro because I believe its hygro polysperma 'rosanervig'. (Tropic sunset)

thanks for the help guys.
I don't know about the sword being a melon from what I was readin there leafs when you are red and these don't show any red at all. I guess I will just have to wait and see.
