What plants do you want identified? It's hard to make out the plants in the picture above, from pictures in your gallery I see sword plants, java moss, maybe anubias and guppy grass. There is kind of a lot going on with the background and are there plastic plants too? Are all the photos of your tank? If you post a picture of the whole tank then of one plant at a time it would be easier to give you the info you want. I agree about ramshorn snails but it looks like there is maybe another type too, one picture looks like it could be an olive nerite, but the pictures are not all that clear.

If you are referring to the plant under the Ram in the first pic...It's a ribbon plant and not fully aquatic unfortunately.

Can't be sure on the plants but try looking up Cryptocoryne.

There is more than one type of ramshorn snail, some get big but the most common ones stay quite small and don't usually hurt plants. Some people don't like them but I quite like them in my tank, the help clean up and as long as you don't overfeed the population stays reasonable.
