I think I’m gonna go with the airline tubing idea since it’s free lol
Floating ring for floating plants

My experience has been that choosing tubing of various diameters works well for different floating plants. For instance, airline tubing is good for the smallest floaters, such as duckweed. In contrast, frog bit, with larger leaves and little pods, works better with a thicker diameter tubing, such as polyethylene I referred to earlier.. Otherwise the tubing flotation is affected by the larger pods resting on the tubing, which results in the corral not quite holding the floating plants as intended.
Some airline tubings are too thin, or otherwise don't allow making a fully flat floating ring, because they are all coiled up. Avoid those as they don't float flat, allowing plants to be constantly escaping, much annoyingly.
