I m not sure about sand but the hc eventually had a good grip on the eco complete substrate.
Eco complete carpet plant.
Eco complete has highly porous spherical grains for optimum diffusion performance and contains live heterotrophic bacteria to rapidly convert fish waste into natural food for your aquatic plants.
Outside of aquariums this plant is almost always found in nitrogen rich human inhabited locations.
I ve grown jungle val and a few other low tech plants in my old aquarium only using gravel and ferts.
This eco complete fish tank rock gravel comes in a range of large and small grain gravel sizes that makes for a porous foundation for plants which stimulates for healthy root growth and optimal bacterial efficiency.
Although it s often grown above the surface it is seen frequently underwater due to weight.

When you inevitably want to switch plants around it s going to be a huge pain.

I d recommended never capping w sand unless your using dirt.
It establishes a natural biological balance which makes cycling a new aquarium faster and safer.
The eco complete substrate is made of volcanic basalt soil.
Actually i used eco complete to carpet hc.
Aquarium conditions that mimic humid subtropical environments are usually perfect for this carpet plant.
Eco complete substrate just bought a 10 gallon tank and was wondering if i should use eco complete as a substrate for my planted tank.
