What do flowerhorn eat?
They are a man made fish developed in a Laboratory in the Far East (Asia). The scientists/biologists artificially fertilised one Amazonian cichlid species ova with the sperm of a different species and produced the Parrot Cichlid and in a different cross the Flowerhorn too. Since they are developed from carnivorous and insectivorous fish their diet would obviously be the same as their parent species. Cichlid pellets should do the job.
Is a discus an omnivore?

What fish can you put with a flowerhorn fish?
These things are not a naturally evolved fish so they have no "proper taxonomic name" and as such they should not exist. They were developed/bred in a Chinese laboratory from the ova (egg) of one species of South American cichlid being artificially impregnated by the sperm of a different South American species. If you must house one then treat it as you would treat any other large South American Cichlid. You can only mix them with other large South American species. Some of them are not that aggressive and do tolerate other fishes including other flowerhorns. As flowerhorn community tanks are kept by flowerhorn hobbist's along with other types like Parrot, Kingkong Parrots, Oscars as well. See Related Question below -
Should you keep green terror fish with flowerhorn fish or can you put them with discus fish?
No, green terrors are of the acara group who are generally less aggressive than Flowerhorns, which are extremley aggressive piscivorous predators (as opposed to acaras who browse for aquatic inverts etc.). And simply no mixing either of those with discus fish, In my opinion. Flowerhorns especially will easily kill a discus, all of whom are non aggressive
