Can I have 3 discus fish in a 35 gallon non planted tank with a few small schooling fish?

I recently got a 130l/35 gallon tropical aquarium and was looking into getting some discus, I know that they require a lot of maintanence but I’m sure that I’m ready to start keeping fish like them. Thxx. Also mabye a small school of fish.
 
I wouldn't. A 35 is a small tank and that makes it challenging to maintain the water chemistry. Discus are unforgiving to fluctuations in their water. I had 2 in a 55 and they never grew over 6".
A 35 makes a nice tank with one central show fish and a handful of small active community fish.
