Other than that, they seem to be very happy with corys, cardinal tetras and penguin tetras.
Yup, just the same with orchids. Once you understand a few basic needs they are not hard at all. Talk to someone that tried once and failed and you will just KNOW it is impossible for EVERYONE to do it.

I believe it is because Angels are nippers and harrass the Discus.

I have a music friend that went whole hog on his amazon tank. CO2 injector, High Discharge lights, Live Plants, Logs and you name it. His discus are delightful. If I remember I will snap a picture and post it. They also have a salt water setup that is HUGE!
