Sand in a planted tank (or cichlid tank), is fine. The depth should be 2-3 inches (closer to 3 for a planted tank). Be sure to plant heavy (lots of plants). Easy to keep plants include...........
Java Fern
Java Moss
Wisteria
Watersprite
Crypt Wendtti
Crypt Lucens
Anacharis
Hornwort
Aponogeton Undulata
Aponogeton Crispus
Anubias Barteri
Anubias Nana
Anubias Coffee
Crypt Beckettii

I'll sticky these plants with others for beginner planted tank owners....
