Dwarf gouramis are cool to breed , but there fry grow super slow. you could also try angels it is not too difficult.

Planted tank, easy fish to breed, no livebearers... Kind of a tall order! What kind of plants are we talking here? Plenty of easy-to-breed cichlids but they don't go easy on plants.

I'd go with a pair or trio of Geophagus steindachnei (red-hump geo). They're an easy mouthbrooder species and the fry are large enough to not require special foods. The fry will take crushed flake food as a first food.
