can discus go in regular communit tanks? with any other peaceful fish?

 

[cluster]

breeding wise i'd say no - but just show wise i would say yes with some of the community fish they should be good to go, i have them with corys and rams, also one female guppy wich im trying to decide to get another pair or move to another tank due to stock space on my 29G

Discus need high temperatures, above 80F or something like that, so not a lot of fish are compatible. But yea, I guess it can be doen tho' I've never done it before.
