What are some low to moderate light plants?

So, I'm starting a fish tank as some of you on here might know. And I want plants, I've been looking at a whole range of plants. And now, after choosing all the other aspects of my tank, I've decided that i want fairly simple, low to moderate light plants. Ones that are fairly hardy (they can be a little demanding though) and will do well in my 26 gallon. My LFS lied to to me, I bought some frill which was marked under "low light", turns out its a high light plant, and I've also got some sort of other plant that they didn't even have labeled, looks like a tiny potted version of a sword plant crossed with some dwarf hair grass. And I have no idea what it is, neither did they, but it was 50 cents so I got it. I'm not concerned over the plants dying due to the fact that they went into a Betta bowl that gets pretty much direct morning sunlight for 4 hours a day, then strong reflected light off my patio for the next 4 hours. I have a couple other highlight plants in there that are doing really well, if only I could get more than two ghost shrimp to live in there, but two seems to be the limit. However I know that I cant do this with my tank since it wont be in the sun. Now, since I i cant trust the labels at my LFS, can somebody list good low to moderate light candidates for my 26 gallon? What kinda of light should I use? I had a hard time differentiating between the types of lights at the store. And I want to do a moss carpet on one side of my tank, I really want to attack it to a piece of slate for several reasons. I wanted to use java moss, but while im on here what are other good types of mosses?
