Plants with African cichlids

[Majames14]

What plants can I put with African Cichlids and should I?

I personally wouldn’t try it. It’s more likely a waste of money and resources than not. Africans will just shred them, uproot them, etc.

You can get away with plants most the time with SA and CA Cichlids but not Africans that I've ever seen.

Not even anubius glued to the rocks

Thanks everyone I figured, I’ll just put rocks and more rocks ?

It is possible to use plants, but it doesn’t always work. It’s worth at least trying out with an anubias. You might be surprised

Just to throw in another's experience, Zenzo at Tazawa tanks has had success keeping Africans with a (very) few plants. Here's a video he posted on his experience:
