What substrate were you using?
Perhaps that is a factor???

I don't think it's that dramatic, just that it can definitely make an

variables in
your tank, to be balanced out with everything else (water quality,
ferts,
supplements, age and type of substrate, what plants you're growing,
your
stocking levels, etc).
I have a lower lighting level than you, and my glosso has always
grown
completely flat unless I put it in one of my terrarium setups or
had the
lights over the tank off for too long. You might just try poking
it back
under your substrate so it's forced to crawl a little more? Also,
I've
found that a little substrate fertilizing really helped my glosso.
It
might help encourage it to root strongly if it was finding more
nutrients
in the substrate than the water column?
