Why not rainbows? I'm biased of course, but they are a challenging fish to keep. They like clean water just like discus do, but in a more manageable kind of way. Rainbows need 50% weekly waterchanges (don't miss a week!) or they start getting white spots in their fins. And once mature, they are very beautiful fish. The fish in my signature is one of my M. Lacustris (aka blue rainbow, lake Kutubu rainbow, and turquoise rainbow.) Definately worth a shot. If you keep them like you should you will witness the breeeding behavior assuming you get females (they show the most color when they are breeding.) They aren't a hard fish to keep. They just need clean water and some veggies in their diet.

Brackish tanks are kinda fun. Not too many people keep them, but those who do love them! They are a bit more complicated than a freshwater tank, yet not as difficult as marine to maintain. What kinds of fish are you gonna get?

If you go go discus, you might as well just go saltwater. IMO saltwater fish are a lot easier than discus.
