Right now, I am trying to find a good, cheap substrate to use in the 
tank. I want something that the plants can actually root and grow in 
that won't cost me a fortune to use. As it is now, about half of them 
are simply floating in the tank because I can't make up my mind what 
kind of substrate to use. Don't want to just keep trying things, them 
failing, and having to start all over again.

I read an article somewhere on the web that said you could use clay 
based kitty litter but an experiment in a 5 gallon bucket to see what it 
would do when totally wet looks like a bucket of mud and scared the crap 
out of me.
