I found a pet store that has a couple of kels but they do not seem to be the prettiest due to them being in too small of a tank at the pet store(I hope).
should I assume that they will pretty up if I buy them and put them in my 560gal or should I wait and get them online from a MFK vendor?
It is a pet store that is reputable and knows there stuff I just wanted you guys opinion before I buy.

I would appreciate a quick answer before my wife gets home and realizes that I am spending that kind of money on a fish!!!!

Some kelberi don't show much at that size and some show some real potential..My guess is that they will pretty up at least a little once they settle in in a new home and being a kelbaholic,I'd take a chance on one.

Whats funny is that I just got off the phone with the pet store and they are down to one and they have a couple of people that are showing interest in the last kel.
I also just started a waterchange that takes a couple of hours andthe pet store is a 45 minute drive.

It will probably be sold before you can get back out there then.Good price for the size,no store around here even brings them in.
