You can't keep any in that tank. You are not even close... Do some research or you will just end up with dead fish...

Please be a troll.
You can't keep any discus fish in a 5-gallon tank for any amount of time without them dying.

You can't put any in a 5 gallon tank. That is WAY too small. Come things that CAN go in a 5 gallon are guppies, a betta, african dwarf frogs, snails, ghost shrimp.

That is a pretty small tank for even one discus, they can get pretty big. I don't think it will have to much room to swim in that tank. I would go with a 20 long at minimum if you are looking to get a couple discus.
