Africans and Discus have different water requirements, which makes long term success unlikely, unless you are one of these people who thinks "it's just a fish", and don't care about their health. In which case, it's probably no big deal to throw them out in the yard, or flush them down the toilet when they die a premature death. Of course you can do as you wish, but it's irresponsible fish keeping practices that give the hobby a bad name.
well since i dont know what im doing then then im glad that they didnt died after i had them together in the same tank for going on a year now and not one problem peacocks can ajust to the discus requirments for water and still be health the only problem i have it the food the peacocks get the food alot quicker then the discus get it so i put in alittle more but yea thanks for the oppinons im getting ready to put on the picture soon but just to let you know my tank is not done yet still need to finsh the lay out

"Going on a year " is not long term.

That's exactly my point.
The one thing I learned over the years is that there's nothing you can do about these people. I'd love to see you prove me wrong, but it I were you I'd just make some fun and chill.
