Ricca is a good foreground plant but...they tend to grow up into long columns.....end up blocking the view.... need to trim to maintain the looks(slightly more maintance than glosso and HC). Any way can imagine how your tank look in one month's time...nice! Just cross your fingers and hope it bubbles

Last resort:
Still dont bubble dose some seachem excel...it helps sometimes(dont overdose hor )

Think most of the plants here will need trimming as well. But maybe the Riccia won't grow so fast.
