Mike sent me a couple extra little 2" discus "to play with ".   I have all 10 of my discus in a 90 gallon as I was originally planning on having only eight of them. There is a 20 long that I run under the 90 for extra water to handle the bioload. The one baby is growing fast the other is probably going to end up a cute little stunted blue fish.  ::)  I'd like to put a couple discus in with angels....oh what a conundrum. Lol.
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

As often as not, in a group of Discus their is one that is lowest in the pecking order.  If you remove the smallest one they start dominating the next least agressive one.  If I were you, I would wait until the Discus got older before I tossed a couple into an Angel tank.  10 full grown Discus are just fine in a 90. 
Always move forward. Never look back.

You're right of course Liz. Thanks. I forgot about the pecking order issue.  I'll leave things as is so I don't further upset things in the tank.

Makes sense...even if it's the little one's doing the harassment....groups of smaller fry can be a menace too..
