I know I know...the java stuff is gonna grow on the cork on the back wall
of
the tank. I want to plant Amazon swords, crypts, adn microsword type
plants
in the substrate....what do you think I should use.

I use 4-5 inches silversand mixed with Dennerle's "Duponit" fertilizer and
2-3 inches of fine gravel to hold the whole lot in place.
