The fish that you are planning on keeping will destroy any plants in your tank. Sorry. I know that's a bummer. The only SA cichlids that are really plant safe are angels, rams, apistos, keyholes, festivums, curviceps, and blue acaras (sometimes). I have a severum in my planted tank right now who I fight with on a daily basis because he is starting to pick apart my plants.
