I know I want something like a clover but which one? I have 2.5+ watts per gallon, CO2, gravel, and AC20 HOB. Dose macros and micros from gregs.

What would you recommend for the lowest and fastest growing?
Aquatic clover - Marsilea crenata
Clover - M. augustifolia
Dwarf water clover - M. minuta
4 leaf clover - M. quadrifolia
Fuzzy clover - m. drumondii

Or will this one work
Hemianthus callitrichoides ( I really like this one :) ) Looks anyway

Please be honest because I have to order this and I don't know enough about any of them to make an educated decision.
 
For the clovers, if you can find it your best bet would probably be M. Minuta as this has the smallest leaf size and will closely resemble Glosso. As a second choice, I believe that M. augustifolia is used by Amano in his tanks.

If you can find Hemianthus Callitrichoides it would make an awesome forground, however, I'm not sure how it would do under your lighting. I just reviewed what PlantGeek and Tropica have to say about it, and it sounds like it should do well under your lighting. I think that this would be the best option if you can find some.
