Discus aren't to difficult to keep, they do.require warm water ( 82-84* ) and clean soft/nuetral water. Best to do water changes a few times a week. When I had discus I didn't have any tankmates in with them, focus was on the discus.

I think the hardest thing about discus is affording them as they can get pricey, lol. Try to get a group at one time as they can become terrotorial to tank mates later intruduced.
