There are a few fish that get labeled as "poor mans discus." Sevrums are one of them and so are Silver Dollars.
I too had considered Petenia splendida. The biggest problem with them is that they need a tank that is bigger than a 120. They need at least a 180, those fish grow to upwards of 18-20" long. Minimum length for the tank needs to be 6'.
