They sure are spindly. They seem healthy, though. The big one in front looks a little too deeply planted. I've seen this cause new growth to get impacted and not come out on some plants. It might just still be adjusting if you haven't had it very long.

I was thinking it may be too deeply planted. Thanks for the input. What would cause the spindly-ness? Ive had them about 2 weeks

The plant will look sad for a bit until the new growth comes through. Additionally, the plant will probably be a lot smaller once the new growth comes in because the new growth won't be spindly.

Probably poor lighting at the store but it's possible that's just how that specific plant grows.
