The dollar per gallon sale at Petco took toll on my wallet today. I now have a 29 gallon tank that I am planning on making a plant only tank.  I have used Eco complete with success, but I'm interested in other substrates just to change things up.  What substrate would you use and what light would you use if money wasn't an issue?

Lighting would be a Kessil a360x 'Tuna Sun' which are compact but powerful.

I have 3 so far, but all my lights would be Kessil's if money wasn't an issue.

Substrate would be locally collected creek sand sieved through a #14 screen as cap over organic garden soil.
