I have 4 big shoots growing off a huge plant in my aquarium.I'm not sure what it's called, nice ,broad green leaves, large main stem, super fast grower.I need to remove these shoots as my aquarium is overgrown, will trade for freshwater invertebrates or plants.

Oh, looks like Hygrophila or Staurogyne.

I'd like to try some though I've given away extra plants from my tank last week so I don't have too many of a single one left. You could pick more than one if they interest you.

This is what I can cut out at this point:
Riccia fluitans
Salivina minima
Rotala rotundifolia
Rotala rotundifolia 'green'
Pogostemon erectum
