Recently I've been considering buying live plants for my tank, in hopes that the extra oxygen provided will help with my axie's small gills, and decided to purchase an aquarium light for them. However not having any lighting up to this point, I didn't have too much as far as hides for my axolotl and I'm somewhat lost as far as means to keep the light from irritating him. Currently I'm considering duckweed and maybe some water lettuce to cover the top as much as possible or just trying to get some larger plants to create some shade for him. Any recommendations for plants that would be able to provide somewhere for him to avoid the light and any advice as to how to get said plants to an adequate size quickly?
