I've got PFS in one of my planted tanks... I just suppliment with root tabs. In my 125 that I just set up, I did a mix of organic potting soil and a layer of sand over it. I've got a friend who has 7 or 8 tanks with the organic potting soil and sand cap. He never doses ferts and has beautiful plants (actually where I got mine). It's not something I can say I've had success with though, as I only planted it today.
Eco Complete, ADA aquasoil, turface, and flourite seem to be the most popular.
