I dunno. Sounds like they could be pretty mean at times...
They really can I've been bitten by one several times got the pics to prove it.lol! I have a weakness for Frontosa(Moba,Mpimbwe) just don't think it goes with your theme. To be honest the Discus seemed perfect in the biotype you've got going on there. So much so I'm having a hard time imagining anything else. Still I'll give it some serious thought and if I come up with a good suggestion I'll be sure to come back and post it.

That would make for a killer display, but I'd pretty much have to redo the whole layout and get rid of the other fish, switch out the wood to rocks, etc. The problem I have right now is all the fish like to hang out in the same spot at the bottom of the tank...except for the angels.

Thanks guys. I need some more fish in there. I have a few eartheaters and some rotkeil sevs, but they all like to stick around the lower parts of the tank. I need something big and active with color, that's not aggressive. Ideas?
Uaru amphiacanthoides would be a good, they get big are peaceful and prefer higher temps like your eartheaters do. I kept them together with many different species of earth eaters and had no problems. Scape looks good Jose.

Actually that's a really good suggestion but if I went Uaru it would be Uaru fernandezyepezi.

VERY nice tank, really like what you have done with the scaping. As far as stocking suggestions I think everyone has already posted any ideas I had for it. Good luck and keep the pics coming!!!
