Hi!
OK, I know my 20g looks AWFUL now because I'm still deciding where to put some of these plants...:o
Anyway, I need some plants identified and suggestions:D

Pic 1. my smaller mystery plant that I need identified;)
Pic 2. Another mystery plant that grows fast and lays on its side most of the time
Pic 3. Full tank..I know, it looks bad-waiting for my plants to grow out...
Pic 4. My mini votive holder tank, with java moss:D

I can't tell on the first plant at all. I couldn't even tell you if that is a hygro or a ludwigia. The second plant is either egeria najas or egeria densa. It is more likely densa, but a picture taken slightly farther away would help. Also, instead of zooming in to fit the picture to the frame, try taking a picture with the plant in focus, and then cropping the photo down to just the area you want.
 
Another recommendation... If you get rid of the bubbler you will have better growth from your plants. The bubbler is not needed at all, the HOB is actually putting in plenty of oxygen, and the more surface agitation you have the less co2 you will have.
 
o..k. lol
Im a little confused:D
The first pic. is a bad one, but the plant is so small...lol
But I'll get another pic. of the full tank and that big plant:D
 
If you take the picture with the fish or plant in focus, but not fully zoomed in, then crop the photo, the fish will be in focus. Many low end - mid end digital cameras will not have the ability to take pictures within 6" of the target. Some won't take a picture within 12" even. It takes a lot of practice with your camera to get use to how it works, and to get good photos.
 
OK...
1st pic. is a full tank shot
The next 4 are the big mystery plant;)
There is java moss and a fake plant in most of the pics...but I hope that you can see the main plant...
