I am starting to develop an interest in water lilies but I am worried that they might get too big and my 2 feet tank cannot handle it. Anyone can teach me the basics of water lily care and where to get the smallest species from plant farms or LFS?

I have a glass container measuring 4 inch by 3 inch by 10 inch(height). Think any species can fit in one? What is the recommended sized container for a small water lily species? Anyone can help? I love the beautiful blossoms and would love to have them in my tank.
