well....discus are pretty HIGH.
I was worried about that. Maybe I could through in a divider during feeding time.
I feed the discus thawed blood worms as a staple diet and there is most likely no way the bass could eat them all before the discus. Should I choose to have a display with 2/3 of my favorite fish, should I put the discus in before the bass? would that reduce Aggression?

there will be aggression nonetheless.
i dont know much about discus...so i dont know how well they might react to it.
yes...pbass can eat VERY FAST.
one thing i'd be worried about is the cichla growing too fast and the discus growing slow.

more bass,any fish that get around the same size,isnt overly aggressive,and is just aggressive enough to get food....
bass dont kill.
but they will show aggression.

gar no...gars can get skittish and break their backs because of the hyper activeness of cichla.
plus they will be outcompeted.
however,it has been done successfully.
everything else works great.

I would say yes to all those.. and yeah I know alot of people that had gar with pbass but gars do break their backs because they are very skitish
