#3 and #4 look like they might be Brazilian Swords.

Echinodorus bleheri is the Amazon Sword. Many other sword plants are known under this name, but are not true Amazon Swords. Brazilian Swords aka Peace Lilies are sometimes sold as Amazon Swords. Amazon Swords have a much longer leaf that reaches near the base of the plant. The Brazilian Sword has a much longer stem and shorter leaves which I see in the picture. Although, I'm no botanist.

The water wisteria has the "jagged" looking leaves right. I bought a plant that the store called water wisteria, looks lust like the number 1 pic, but the leaves are more... I guess jagged, oak shaped. And it grows insanely fast.
