cancel the jungle vallis and get narrow vallis instead. jungle vallis rots in tanks and does best in big ponds.

Great! They’ve already shipped. I couldn’t find any that said “narrow leaf”.

as you have a taller tank some Vallisneria would look really nice

What another good easy carpeting plant are there for me to try?

umm carpets are quite hard without co2 injections and that is quite expensive, but I am trying a spiky java moss carpet as these plants can grow under lower light and with out co2

this is what i am aming for (this is a carpet of spiky java moss).
some of the more 'high end' carpets made form baby tears and hair grass can be quite triky.

hope this helps

Will plants be alright in a car for 3 hours or so? Should I get a cooler or something?

no don't trash them that looks fine, remember plants grow in a different tank for different people just because one person had it die off does mean you will not have success give it a go it can only go well

I love the marimo mossballs. The fish love pecking things off them too, and my 2 frogs (Ronnie and Reggie) like hiding underneath them.
