plant out-competes algae like stem plants. Especially ones like Dwarf
hygrophila (Hygrophila polysperma) or the red ludwigia (ludwigia mulertii).

What sort of lighting are we talking about here? When I remade my 55
recently with splendid substrate and water conditions and CO2 regulation
and 4 watts/gallon in the relevant part of the tank, I tried Ludwigia, and
it doesn't grow fast enough to be useful.

Come to think of it, though, this "red Ludwigia" is probably L repens. Is
L mulertii a lot better?
