I say plastic plants only, due to firemouths love to dig i nthe gravel and tend to dig right next to plants and uproot them. I suggest using larger size rocks around any plants you may use.

I'd love to keep live plants with my Cichlids, but they tend to move things around to suit their taste. I had to go with plastic plants; though some Java moss has been growing on my driftwood.
