It's definately not a dragon fruit plant as i have two growing and fruiting. The dragon fruit doesn't have any leaves.

I have seen those heart shaped cacti here for sale in thailand..... great gifts for valentines etc. Sorry, i don't know it's name.

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one...the plant in the 4th and 5th pictures (the 2nd plant shown) is almost definitely Hylocereus undatus (as you pointed out, it has no leaves )

From what I've been reading there are a number of different species which produce both the night-blooming flower and the Dragon Fruit

Dragon Fruit - Hylocereus undatus

Epiphytic cacti Hylocereus undatus Dragon fruit Pitaya Pitahaya

Can you post pictures of yours? I'd love to see them!

Be careful where you put that thing - from the photos in the links you posted it looks like it could take over a whole tree in no time! Gotta save room for orchids!!
