A 120g can permit you 6 discus.:)
Only 6 for a 120g tank? That would likely lighten up the work load as far as water changes, but 10 should be safe in a 120g tank, yes? (this is, of course, depending on other inhabitants, water change schedule, etc) The only downside I can see presently with 10 is that if you end up with more than one pair, there may be some territorial aggression until the fry mature. Just my 2 cents.

Four or get a spawning pair instead but that's expensive.

. . . . and then maybe double the amount of cories, and add a mate for the bristlenose. as far as the guppies add at least 2 females for every male, or all males if you don't want fry.
