@ Chas: I completely agree with that. I think plants can grow well in any fine substrate. Although in a thick gravel fine roots would have trouble to establish.
We made a decision and we are getting Eco-Complete (As seen on Aquatic Eden. Thanks!). It is very expensive to buy online as it's heavy for shipping. But we found that store in Huntsville, The Aquarium Shop, that will have three bags for us this Friday for $28 each.
It's not very cheap, but will be worth it, as it is a dark substratethat is very good for plants. So for now the aquarium waits.
We put 4 platies in the 20 gal aquarium today. We put them in and turned off the lights, so they can get used to the new place. Here is a little video.

Gorgeous aquarium! Lala is begging us for fishies...but I fear for their fate...I really, really do.
Sort of a cross between Christopher Moore's book "A Dirty Job" and "Finding Nemo's" naughty niece of the dentist! "GULP!"
