I have a very nice Colombian, but it took some time to get her that way. They are not more aggressive than Argentines, just more flighty and defensive. They will need a bigger cage than a 20Gal, so be prepared to spend money on an enclosure.
I'd go for it...you can likely rehome them if it doesn't work out for you. Geez the guy wasn't going to release them was he? Not a good idea...and illegal.
