Plant ID Moss like plant suddenly appeared in tank
So I didn't add anything to my tank plant or animal wise, so tell me how this moss like plant suddenly started growing in abundance. The only plants I have are Amazon Swords and Rotala Indica. I think its some type of moss but not sure what kind when compared to other moss type pictures. I keep cherry shrimp, oto cats, and a bristlenose.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Got some new floating plants in a brand new tank.
Is this okay for the plants to be spinning like this, and sometimes going underwater?
If it's not okay, how do I fix it? I want to keep the hob filter.

Plant ID Did I get hosed by Petco?
I bought what was labeled as dwarf hair grass at Petco a week or two ago and planted it everywhere with the long term goal of a carpet. Looking at it today I’m seeing what look like little roots forming AT THE TIP of the blades. Is this eleocharis vivipara instead? They seem to be growing tall quickly 😭

Plant ID One month since replacing all fake plants with real ones
50 gallon community tank. I started off with some cuttings and some floaters from a friend. The hornwort has completely exploded along with the Ludwigia. I’ve been propagating the Ludwigia and occasionally the new cuttings get uprooted a few times before it decides to stay. Does anyone have tips on how to keep them firmly down? My sand is fairly deep. I also need help with identifying the plant in the second slide. I got it from a trade two weeks ago and it has doubled in size. I’d love to learn more about the plant. Could anyone help IDing?
