Ya I have jungle vals in my tank. They multiply like crazy and get huge! I started with 2 about 3 weeks ago.
do you use co2 or fertilizer?
 
Thats my 210 gallon Ive only got 2 monos in there but one is pushing 10"+ and the other is about 5" I have many varieties of plants in there not too sure the species of plants but for the most part I dont have terrible problems with them and the plants. I do have to clean out random pieces of leaves that they break off or the 15" TSN breaks off but I guess its like natural grooming of the plants nothing has died off because of them though. And its not real common that they will completely unroot the plants maybe once a month Ill find a more delicate plant unrooted and I just replant it.
 
I use some fertilizer plant tabs, 6700k 54w bulbs times 2, and a liquid fertiizer once a week. All jungle vals really need though is light...
