	Plants/Cichlids
aquapickle27 Enthusiast Posts: 182 Kudos: 98 Votes: 55 Registered: 28-Jan-2006	Could i put a few live plants with my kennyis, and red zebras? I was looking to fill it in a little more, and i wanted a little color. So instead of another rock i was thinking maybe a plant or tow would look good. What do you all think would the cichlids destroy the plants, or would the plants have a chance? Thanks! †Aquapickle†

I'm assuming you have low light though. If you have more than stock lighting, you might could try some Vallisneria. My Mbuna leave them alone. But mine are just surviving in my light (about 64 watts over a 55g). *Kristin*

I don't know about these fish, but i tried a small low light plant, (not sure what it is) and they aren't destroying it yet. Thanks again! †Aquapickle†
