So, I have one common Hoya, in a tank right now, that I'm betting is going to be an excellent plant to grow out of an aquarium... it's doing well so far, & is a cutting from a 100 ish year old house plant, that used to be my wife's grandmothers... there are several varieties, that we have had as house plants... ( variegated, with whites & pinks ), curly leaf... but I just found a variety, that I had never seen before, & I'm going to try it in a tank... it's called a "Black Margin Hoya" ( Hoya Verticillata )... assuming it is a flowering vine, like the rest of the Hoya clan???

Spoiler Alert... looks like that picture, is kind of like pictures of fish from the sellers... ( always a male in mating colors )... I looked around, at this plant from several sources, & usually the black edges aren't so wide ( several are ), but most only seem to have black edges to the leaves, that don't extend into the tops or bottoms of the leaves, like this one does... will see when mine gets here...
