Btw, can java moss attach to woods or rocks without the need to tie them up?
Yes, they can.

It helps to tie them at first so they're in contact long enough to attach, but after a while they will stay attached by themselves just fine
 
What's the name of the plant where it's bright green & could cover almost anything in the tank.. it makes the tank look natural..
 
glossostigma will cover the bottom of your tank in no time, but you will need strong lighting and CO2 (DIY 2L bottle works). Stronger lighting will keep the glosso flat on the substrate. With weak lighting, the grass will tend to grow vertical.

how tall will java moss grow? is it just a spongy looking plant or will it grow up a little bit and be like grass in a sense?

They barely look like grass to me. These can be messy if they overrun your decors. As far as the height, you'd want to assign some driftwoods for that task. They won't grow tall like the grass.
 
Java Fern are nice plants.

I don't think glossostigma is the plant that I wanted..
I think it's some kind of algae with bright green colour & hairy? I'm not sure...
