discus food is really a color food. i don't see any problem. try useing reg flakes and then use discus flakes so that every1 gets what they need.

Mixing the foods is fine, just make sure you're not overfeeding. I'll sometimes feed 2 or 3 different types of dry foods @a time crushing up the larger pieces a bit smaller if needed for smaller mouths.

Yes, you can mix the food. Just see that everybody is eating & having their portion.

when i kept discus, eveything else in the tank - tetras, apistogramma species, and plecos - ate what they ate (which was pretty varied, but all discus-centred).
