I'm hoping someone can help me out with finding out what
this plant is and hints on how to grow it ;).
It came in with another plant that I bought.
There's only this little bit of it and I've had it floating
among some giant val close to the light, but it's hardly grown.
It's such a cute looking little plant that I'd like to get it to
take off.

Thanks for having a look :).
That would be a Marsilea species.
It's quite a undemanding ground cover plant. Start it off in a well lit, but not bright spot. Once settled in, it will send out runners and spread. It's relatively slow growing, depending on the conditions.
Awesome thanks fischkopp :).
Would it grow faster if I put it in a terrarium type setup
do you think or kept it in a bog type situation?
You will get faster growth with more light. Yes, terrarium would work. In it's emersed form the plant will develop a clover leaf. This can also been seen submersed when the plants creeps into darker areas of the tank.
Good stuff, time to set up the over sized brandy snifter again.
Thanks.
Ditto what Robert said. I had it under high light and once it got going it grew like a weed!
