What kind of Kelberi are these? My LFS has them for sale @ $69.99

Ask your LFS, if your LFS can't tell you then anyone's guess could be right. You can't "indentify" a species locale by a picture it's not that easy.
 
I would say the same as Ryan, but they do look a lot like Rio Tocantins. Seems like a lot of RT's have been going around. I bought a whole bunch earlier this year and now have 4 left.uploadfromtaptalk1400110027014.jpg

$70 is pretty steep, I paid $40 each for mine. But I guess I would pay $70 if that was the only way to get them. These RT's are looking good and will be stunners later.

I would be more inclined to say RT's because of how many I've seen going around on the Internet. Look how many guys on MFK have them. I'm in Hawaii and there was a bunch going around here too. On the flip side, I haven't seen too many RA's being sold or even found for sale. Only the recent thread of some guy finding unlabeled pbass and them turning out to be RA's (still not definite on that ID, but other guys thinking the double eye spot on the tail looking very RA'ish.

Those bass you guys posted, isn't kelberi's. If I can make a few dollars of selling saturated bass to folks like this, then I would. But I would sell quality bass. Have fun growing out ocells.

Hawaiian, I know of of two true wild caught kelberi's in Hawaii, and that homeboy would of traded me my old two ( m and f ) Kel's for his super rare turtle. And all this RA, RT and what have you are all from SG.....Singapore. So just call them Singum hybrids.

And all the current Sao Fran Kel's, updates????? No, no one? Because it's all BS. :) All a half arse ploy to get them money.

There pics around ... You just got to dig alittle lol. RA, Tocantins, sg, or São which ever they may be. I'll say this there are a lot looking really good to those who still got them so good luck proving which is a junk bass. If rapps got them and said they were wild no one would even second guess even though so many had them up for sale especially if they were looking good. Look at all the intapinga kels that came around.. Plenty went up for sale from different people so are they junk bass from who knows where? I do believe though all the kels came from the same parents since I notice a lot of similarities between the São, RA, Tocantins but I could be wrong...When all these bass hit 15 inches plus and are 3-4 years old then we all will have a pretty good idea if we wasted our time but so far I'm not seeing waste yet with mine.
I think you just need some Haynchinook lol.
