today i picked up a redtail cat about 18 inches and a peacock bass about 10 inches and a african pike about 7 inches. i paid 45 for all 3 which i thought was a good deal. couple questions for ya fellow mfkers. can you identify the african pike? and is it kinda rare or expensive because ive seen alot before and this is the nicest one ive ever owned. next is the red tail cat. he was fine in the persons tank i bought it from but once i dumped him into my tank one of his gills are rolled over on the oppisite side that you cant see. did this happen when he netted the fish? will it heal itself? can i cut that rolled over part away and will it grow back fine? i appreciate any answers or questions. and the rest are pics of my fish and tanks. thanks

i have 2 jags. one is 13.5 inches and i think hes on his way out due to old age and the other is about 9 inches
 
All your fish look great, but that rtc looks really skinny. Gill curl is from poor water quality. Surgically fixing the gill would just be cosmetic and not worth it if you are only concerned with its health. Nice setups.
 
guess he had poor water. sucks that he did that to a nice rtc. at least they are in good hands now.
 
if anyone could give me a id on that pike that would be great. he or she is stunning
