Well i'm back 
I've decided not to go and make a planted tank, but rather, a biotope! Wooo!
Now i read an article about how you could set up your tank to recreate the amazon river. It said: Sandy substrate, NO rocks, many fallen braches, few, few plants, only Vall. and Swords.

I'd like to recreate that, so i'd just like to know, are Vallisneria (bad spelling) and swords hardy plants? As i said, it's not going to be a planted tank, so no CO2 injectors, dim light, no special substrate. Ya, this sounds like an anti-live plant tank, but i'd like to know if those two plants can survive in such conditions,

Oh, before i forget, i would like to ask if anyone know how i could set up a thin layer of leaf litter and mud along the surface of the sand, without adding harmful chemicals, and keeping it safe any website links are welcome
