It's Alternanthera reineckii. Tough plant to grow without high light and CO2.

Been in tank almost 2 weeks now. I think I do see some of the bottom leaves starting to melt maybe, from lack of more light no doubt then. Thanks for IDing the plant for me! :)

I agree with redchigh. And PonyMan, do you know about our profiles? If you noticed in redchigh's post the name of the plant species is shaded, which means we have it included in the profile; you can click on the shaded name to see that profile. Thought I'd point this out in case you weren't aware of the profiles. There are photos and information on the plant in the profile.

Byron.
