Need some help ID'ing a plant & fish

The fish is a geophagus rhabdotus I think but might be a geophagus surinamensis.
just looked in my tanks and now am not sure could also be a bahia red or a pelligrini but shure its one of those have the same fish at the same size in my tank but mixed with 5 other asst geos.
I should know the plant
but have it and dont know either.

It also looks like Ammania gracilis to me too, but I might be wrong.
SuperJohnny, you're from Sol? Me too!

Rotala macrandra for sure.
Hard to grow, needs a lot of light.
Edit: Never ever ever every buy fish that you're not familiar with! How can people do this? Next thing you know, you're bringing home a baby piranha, hoping it will get along with your guppies in a 10gal. Sorry to pick on you, but I just don't understand how people can do this.

Excellent point Starry, I agree completely. That said I knew what he was two years ago when I got him 
He's amazingly nice. Definitely has his run of the tank, but I've never seen him be aggressive towards another fish.
The rotala (thanks bye the way) does thrive when it gets towards the light. I cut it when it is doing really well and re-plant it. I'm trying to get a thick patch.
Thanks guys
