Your best bet is to compltely rearrange everything in the tank, and see if that works. If not, you could get rid of the SAEs, or move the discus to a new tank for a few days so that the SAEs can claim the tank for themselves and the discus will be the "new fish". I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.
