Default setting up 90gal. planted tank

Hi all,

Newbie here, Just joined GB. I'm a housewife, have about 30 tanks of all sizes from 90g down to 2gal. Most ar Cichlid breeding tanks, one 20gal long Reef tank and a 55 gal planted tank.

My largest tank is now a 90 gal. Cichlid tank. Selling all the cichlids. too bad you'llll live so far away. the Cichlids are adult males in full color. from 4" to 7" some wild. nice fish. back to the 90 gal..

Want to turn this tank into a planted tank. Have questions on what substrate to use. because of my age, and the size of this tank i don't want to have to change the substrate ever few years.
need trouble free... yes...

So .... been looking at

Flora Base by Red Sea.
www.redseafish.com
or

Seachem Flourite

Or
Carib-Sea Eco-Complete th planted AQuarium Substrate.
carib-sea.com

Of the three the Eco-Complete sounds the best but truly don't know.

Can you new friends out there please tell me (if you have used it) the good and bad on each.
