Considering what you paid for shipping, I know I would have.
If he has them listed at 7 Inches, chances are they are more like 5. Every time I have ordered from Jeff they are smaller than the listed size. Believe me they are quality fish just short on inches. Ha Ha.
When I ordered my Tapajos, they were listed at 7 inches. When put in tank, 2 were maybe 5 and the third was maybe 5.5. Don't get me wrong I am happy with them, just not in the listed sizes.

They are marms bro, don't get down. just still in juvenile phase. My Tapajos had the head spotting until they reached a solid 6.5-7 inches. They will go through several phases.
You will be well rewarded when they reach maturity. Be psyched, you have one of the nicer specieas of pikes. IMO

IMO In My Opinion. Ha Don't be surprised if they don't eat for a few days. Mine took about 4 days to start taking krill. Jeff was feeding Krill and Blood worms when I talked to him. Don't feed feeders, let them starve until they take some krill or something.
when i saw the other pikes in your collection it looks like they ate golfballs.. incredible.. atleast they are easier to get to eat then this esox .. its like pulling teeth..
those other pikes were beasts they ate everything... from feeders to krill to market shrimp to flakes sinking meat pellets floating pellets they didnt care lol.... as long as the other fish got nothing...
sad that i had 2 males and couldnt find a female at the time... they started wrecking each other... had to let them go
