What kind of paint are you referring to , that prevents heat loss I wonder ?
The only thing to pay attention in your plan IMO would be to use quarantine tank as a test and be careful mixing all the species together in the tank.
I prefer starting with discus only , and adding all the rest after couple of months adjustment period using QT tank for any new addition .
Good luck Troy and please do share some photos when all gets set and ready
