It is not a good idea to keep Discus of different size together. The small Discus will probably get picked on possibly causing other problems. It is best to keep the juvies in a separate tank if possible until they grow out.

Shane it is a very bad idea to keep adult discus with smaller ones. Not only will that stress out the smaller ones but they will not be able to compete for food and that will also slow down their growth.
