Anyone know where I can get a wild orange or wild green discus about 50mm?

:lol: Unfortunately wilds don't come in "Orange" colour.
Yes, there are such things as red spotted green "wilds".

The next problem is size.... 5cm wilds.... errrr, don't believe u'll find them. The smallest size safe for handling would be approx 3inch fish. At 5cm, the mortality rate is too high for wild collecting and then shipping. Remember these guys get caught an held deep in the Amazon and it is a very stressful journey to get them out of the jungles. Most of the time you get the wilds quite large.
