Hmm not sure about the sea sand. You could float the small plants and wait for them to grow roots or you could just plant them as far down as you can without completely covering them. They will eventually grow roots long enough to reach down into the soil.
As far as planting new plants I would suggest getting a pair of planting tongs seen here.
If you wanted to start over just take out all of the fish and put them in a bucket with water from the tank. Then drain the tank and take out all the plants making sure not to rip them out without their roots. Also make sure you keep those plants wet because they will dry out and die if you don't.
You are going to want to put the soil in first, dampen it until it has the consistency of a mud, then put your substrate over it, then fill the aquarium up about half way and plant your plants and then fill it up the rest of the way and then do 50% water changes until the water clears up. After that, you can install your filter and begin the cycling process.
Just search Foogle for the Walstad method and you will find all the info you need.
I want planting tongs to fix all the plants in my community tank. Seriously, they're a mess.
