I've grown those two plants, A reineckii espeically in harder water.
Why do you have such hard water(is the tap hard)?
AF rift fish are fine at 5-9 ranges of GH/KH's.
They might live in harder waters, but the GH can be quite high and not bother any plants.
Julidochromis, Tropheus and lamps are good as are some feather fins.
There's a nice planted 240 gal tank near my place here with Tropheus.
They mow the Val to about 1-2" tall, makes a nice lawn and no mainteance.
About 2/3 of the tank is planted.
No CO2 etc.
