I have a blue ram and a discus together. The ram always flars at the discus but doesent touch him. He just swims by him and flares. The discus doesent mind he just goes on swimin.

This is just cichlid behavior. Like I've told you before, things should settle down.

If they don't you could bag all of your fish and redo the tank, then let them back in. The ram will have to make his own territory again. This should stop him from going after the discus.

I'm actually surprised it isn't your Angels causing the commotion.

The angels are fine. They only chase the discus when he gets into their territory during breeding. But no cantact is made and its only a little jump by then the discus is long gone.
