    E.tennelus could be one of your choice or some moss tied to wire mesh.

    Marsilea Hirsuta is also a good plant albeit the slow growth. It looks nice once it spreads out fully. Hairgrass works too but need alot of patience.. hehe

    Maintenance wise, which is the easiest...? Hairgrass or Marsilea Hirsuta? Hairgrass is a hell to trim and I can't fully get every bit off my tank properly.

    Glosso grows on top of each other and have to be trimmed when that happens. Will Marsilea Hirsuta behave the same as Glosso?

    Marsilea easier to maintain because it grows slowly, just need to watch out for algae.
