Should I put rocks or mulch around my plants?

I have two 6×6 areas in my front yard, one on each side of the porch. My husband wants to fill it in with rocks and use barrels for plants. I want to plant a mixture of hostas, day lilies, echinacea, etc…color! He doesn’t like the wood chips, and I hear rocks are hard to clean out when it starts getting dead leaves and petals. What do you recommend? Any pictures or ideas to share? What about keeping weeds away?

I have mainly neons, and some mollies, and guppies. I would ideally want as few plants and rocks as possible. But will lack of plants and rocks be detrimental to the fish?

Is it okay to have landscaping rocks around plants?

I have 1-2 inch rocks around my lawn- we have planted plants and trees in the rock areas. Now I hear that plants and trees will not do very well, that they should be surrounded with mulch instead- is this true?
