Thats 120gal or close too.
I would say up too 10-12 small discus. Might also want too do a few more water changes per week depending on how well your filtration copes with the bio load. Also angel carry parasites theat dont effect them but might your discus, might also find trouble with them.

i've always been told to wait 14 days after angels are ditched to introduce Discus for the same reasons flukes mentioned
