african question

do fishes from species aphyosemion go along with malawi cichlids ?
(melanochromis, aulonacara, labeotropheus, pseudotropheus)

i still dont have any of this, just thinking of what kind of fish to
get to setup african tank.
Also i would appreciate any advice or link on how to setup enviroment
for africans (info about plants would also help alot). thnx.
