Alternanthera 'mini' would be my favourite (same as above).
Ludwigia glandulosa will "do the job" too. A deeper, more beat-red colour and a bit faster growing. Not difficult to trim, though.
Ludwigia palustris can be trimmed to stay low - but this include a lot of trimming!!!
Alternanthera 'rosaenervig' has a more compact growth and more "rich rosepink colour" than standard.
Not to drag off topic but since Mick mentioned Rosanervig.. How would you go about keeping it low? I have it in my tank and it's grown about 25-30cm tall! The stem is super thick as well. Beautiful plant though.
Trimming is dependant on growing rate, which is again dependant on environment in the tank.
- so it is not possible to give specifics......other than : "when needed", and that will not guide you much, I suppose
I re-plant cuttings, to get the group of plants more dense, or to widen the group.
