hi all I want to get a pair of discus for my 55 gallon tank. It currently contains large plants, a huge piece of wood and a smaller piece of wood, a clown pleco, a hypostomus of some kind, three pearl gouramis, a blue gourami, a small black ghost knife, and a bee cat. The temp is 80 degrees and I will do water changes three days a week. It currently has a penguin 200 power filter on it but it will soon be a penguin 350. what do you think? I may be giving away the blue gourami soon. do discus eat flakes?
 
Does not sound like something that will be successful even with adult discus. A 55 is a good sizefor 5-6 discus and a cleanup crew.
