I don't think that would do any harm. I've never kept discus so I'll let other people chime in on this.

Even tho discus are temp. sensitive. I don't think 1 degree would matter. Are we talkin Fahrenheit or celcius?

To the OP. One degree (C or F) fluctuation during the day /night is fine.

My lights warm my smaller tanks up at least a couple of degrees & I haven't seen any adverse effects but I don't have Discus.

In the winter, even with my heater on and working well, I was always having a 4-6 degree jump from day to night. My fish never seemed to mind. They stayed healthy and happy (as far as I could tell).
