What are some methods to stop discus from attacking tetras. Will adding plenty of driftwood help.

As discussed often here, tetras are premium discus food.

They live in nature together probably because of many hiding places i guess. Anyway thanks for the reply.

In my previous discus tank, I felt like my discus "enjoyed" swimming through a school just to mess with them!

In current tank, the discus don't bother the neons but are not afraid to charge after food that a neon is about to eat.

Grasses and drift wood will keep out the bigger fish so that is for sure an option.
