Go to your LFS and they most probably have a good selection of aquatic plants. The need a good substrate - I use gravel - and good lighting. BTW, if you intend using plants in a cichlid tank - don't bother, they would use them as a salad bar The only plants that i can keep in my cichlid tank is java fern - the fish obviously don't like it, anything else gets eaten as fast as I put it in, so now I don't bother.

I agree with Gad on the cichlid tank......mine think that anything like food is for them to eat.....lol
