Default 55g natural

want a naturalistic tank

i have a four foot 55g and everything is ready i just need to decorate

ive seen people with the amazon deeproot wood but idk how to get that

i want to use sand substrate

i like the idea of sand and wood it looks cool kinda shooting for blackwater look and i want some floating plants(that are not exactly moss)

suggestions on what i should do to make this look happen?

I've had wisteria in my tank before. You can either plant it or just let it float. That stuff grows so freakin' fast, I had to give some to my friend. They'll be good to compete against algae. I've also had pennywort floating around in my tank. Another fast grower, but not as fast as wisteria.
