Carpeting plant for a sand substrate

Hi,
It's not clear what relevance sand has as regards the carpet plant choice. Is this an issue of aesthetics? Sand typically has less physical retention for any plant having short root structure but one can simply push the plant deeper into the sand. Hairgrass, Glosso, HC, E. tennelus, Stuarogyne, P. helferi, even Riccia or mosses mounted on a plate as described in the Tutorial Riccia and Java moss carpets. Step-by-Step guide are excellent options. These are all valid regardless of substrate type. You are only limited by your imagination.
Cheers,
