So far i have never had any problems with bristlenoses.
I have kept them with fry in the tank (though not discus fry...yet;))

Raised them perfectly safely.
If you ever get the BN to breed they are great. They really are the best parents a baby catfish could ever wish for, not to mention interesting ;)

Personally Baker, I wouldn't.

With a pair of discus in breeding mode, I wouldn't give them anything else to worry about. If they did lay eggs, you might find that they disappeared overnight if not covered with a guard. With daily water changes, there is also no need to have a BN in the tank imo.
