Hi, Sorry to hear the issues here.. A couple of notes..
1) We need to see pics of the tank and fish
2) contact your water company and see if they add Chloramines or just Chlorine.. If they are all headstanding and dying, that sounds like chemical poisoning. though I would expect the The Rummynose Tetra and Balloon Rams to have died too.
3)You may be overfeeding the beefheart depending on how much you feed (3-6X a day) per feeding and with your water changes. You mentioned you are doing 50% daily "NOW" what were you typically doing before? Do you make this or buy it premade?
4) putting your new fish into a tank where your discus without knowing why they died is really not a good idea... its asking for a possible problem again
5)even though you didn't do this with both groups I still want to point it out.. DO NOT DO THIS. Its not needed and using a caustic oxidizer on your fish can damage their gills and its knocks back your biological filter. I realize its out there and regular PP treatments are recommended by some, but healthy fish should not need them. And as a disease treatment, its not without risk,I used to do PP baths every week
