that's the question. Could one keep discuss in say a 90 gal with my fish listed below. Maybe some teras aswell. Always loved discuss but heard they were extremely hard to care for.
 
Discus aren't hard to care for. They require a bit more work and alot more knowledge.

There wouldn't be much a problem keeping adult discus in 90 gallon with those species. The problem is most people buy juvenile discus and their requirements are much more stringent than adults. IME it's best when starting with discus to concentrate on a discus only tank first. In this way you'll have much better understanding of the needs of discus and have an easier time adapting the fish to your wants. Make sense?
 
pretty much. I most likely won't end up getting discuss in this tank, just thought i'd see what folks here had to say. I think that in a 90gal I could have some really nice schools goin on... Thanks for the info brian
