Advice for a easy nice floating plant.

Water Sprite (Ceratopteris thalictroides/ cornuta) is one of the best floating plants. If you grow too much on the surface, you can plant them in the gravel.
Water lettuce doesn't do that well in aquariums with coverglass because it gets too humid and they rot.
A lot of small floating plants can be difficult to control.

Do you have any good images of water sprite didn’t know they could plant in gravel? Do they need root tabs or do they still take everything in from there leaves?
These are all great but smother the surface. I like Cardamine as the best floater
No images but there are plenty online.
They don't need root tabs, just a bit of light and water.
Under ideal conditions the plant can grow to over 2 feet in diameter and have roots that are 18+ inches long. The leaves can stick out above the water about 12 inches. However, under normal conditions it is much smaller and usually grows to about 6 inches diameter.
Water Sprite is a really good floating plantI sell it on Etsy for a very reasonable price.
