Well in my case, I guess there's nothing to get. The gliceria is standing there because I like it there.
One day I got a little piece of this plant and I decided to put it there. It makes my tank look deep and its nice how fish swimm around it.

You are talking about Dutch aquascaping. I think its very funny: some-one told me about the photo of my tank in this topic. I never intended to scape to a certain (dutch) standard.
I am a dutch woman and because my tank stands in Holland, it must be a Dutch tank. This tank excists for one year. I never bought or choose any of the plants in this tank but got little pieces from several people who had some leftovers. I moved them somewhat around and let them grow. When I put the plants in place I didn't even know about aqua-scaping or dutch tanks.
