I have a 150g stocked with Africans. I have yellow labs, Ob Peacocks, and a lot more. I was wondering if there were any (low light and easy maintenance) plants I could put in the tank with the cichlids. If anyone has had any luck, the help will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Nick

You could try anubias and java ferns. They can both be securely attached to driftwood or rocks making them inpossible to be uprooted, and fish usually don't like the taste of them.

I have seen a photo of a Cichlid tank with many varieties of anubias wedged between rocks and it looked rather natural and very effective, all the plants looked in excellent condition.

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info
