Discus Fish

i've never bred discus before. I have one in my aquarium though. In the past angelfish has laid eggs ( like 2 or 3 months ago) and yesterday my parrot cichlid laid eggs. I dont know why, but it laid eggs without another parrot? Well i think my discus was supposed to fertilize the eggs since my parrot was only letting discus come near the eggs(not other fish). But i dont know if he fertilized it. All i saw him do was hover right on top of the eggs. So basically what i want to know is if my aquarium had these fish bred, can my aquarium breed discus?

You don't say anything about your tank size, for two adult discus you would need alot of space for them to be able to move around. I don't think it's capable of fertilizing the parrots eggs though.
