I had a 10 gallon set up with glass lizards in it. It was big gravel on the bottom, potting soil, small bark, dead leaves in layers. The GLs were underground all the time. I tried various small live plants but I just couldn't keep them wet enough without worrying about having the lizards too wet. The plants would just gradually waste away. Maybe if you put the plants in containers with solid bottoms with drainage "built-in" like clay shards or big gravel...
