lol
I put a half dozen ghost shrimp in my cichlid tank. I have one melenchromis
(sp) in the tank and it takes him about five to ten min to devour all or
most of them. So, in conclusion.... they get along just fine. like me and
steak :o)

Assuming you can have a planted tank with large cichlids ;~), then you
would make your fish work a little harder for their meal.

which in the end would cause them to up root any plant that 'did' happen to
make it....

yeah, sounds like a pipe dream to me... probably end up taking them out...
I'm replanting almost every other day anyway.... Peacocks aren't hell on
plants, just the pl*co.... I've got 4-5" peacocks that don't even go near
them, but swim thru them chasing food.... weird..
