I like barbs, danios and rainbows in planted tanks but you could do some cool cichlids, I hear some folks have luck with fire mouths with plants

I have found neolamprologus brichardi/daffofili/helianthus/lelupi , julidochromis species and most peacocks to be fine with plants.
Of course sevrums and angels are good too.
I have P. Saulosi in a planted tank, but I can't tell if they  are bothering the plants (too many) but they seem OK.
