Does anyone know of any good vendors/sources? I've used plastic plants for now, but would like to replace these with the real thing eventually. Thanks!

Gulf Coast is the live plants link above. Their red sampler is amazing and very generous.

Caulerpa prolifera (mexican caulerpa) has a bladed grasslike appearnace, and is your best bet for replicating the look you currently have going. Just give it the occasional trim and you're good to go.

Both are really macro, but they do not really look like seagrass...
