Would seachem excel and seachem root tabs be better or a mini pressurized co2 kit? This is assuming the substrate is just plain old aquarium sand.

Also, how many pounds would I need of the aformentioned sand per gallon in a planted tank?

Thanks in advance!

I would use a layer of peat moss with a layer of sand on top to "trap" the peat moss. (canadian spaghnum peat moss in the 1 footx1 footx3ft plastic "bales" $11). then forgo the excell or root tabs.
