Lotus...I think



Can someone tell me if this red plant is a Lotus?

If so what kind?  I have been searching the archives assuming it is a Lotus
of some kind.

The problem I have is that it has suddenly decided to send out leaves that
quickly grow to the surface of the tank.  They are starting to block out to
much light for the other plants.  I love the plant but it is beginning to
look like it belongs in a pond.

According to the archives I should cut the stems before they make it to the
surface.   Is that true?
