Normally I keep African Cichlids but I want to try and do discus fish with live plants. I have a 130g tank just upgraded from my 55g. I have 2 aquaclear 110 hob filters lights 2 200w heater etc. My question is can i get away with 50% water changes once a week. I plan on housing no more than eight discus with maybe some tetras cardinals lets say 25 or so maybe less.

You should be fine if you go with adult discus.
