Ahaha! Mike, you are well on your way to start totally loving this plant. It's very "ivy" looking with the leaves looking very decorative, fresh green and overall "where the mermaids live" look.
Hygrophilla angustifolia.
With CO2 the leaves get huge - easily a foot long, about 1/2 inch wide and with big green veins.
While we are ID'g plants...can someone tell me what this is? A friend of mine from Atlanta sent it to me and I have never figured out what it is. Whatever it is, it grows quite well in my tank. It's a really neat plant that has shoots that develop baby plants. I've also had a few that have voluntarily rooted to driftwood and thrived. Here's a few pictures.
