Nice pike! I am assuming it's the Atabapo red? I just got one 2 days ago and she is still just getting acclimated.. But still amazing looking fish. What are you feeding yours? Are you feeding anything specific to enhance the red colouration? Here is mine

Very cool. He looks huge.
I had a belly crawler for a while and i can't imagine him being that big. They're really cool looking fish.

Looks like that fish has some HITH. Lots of water changes should be done and maybe treat for hex. Not sure if the HITH is from hex or just improper water conditions prior to you getting it, maybe an experienced pike keeper can chime in.

I feed mine NLS extra large fish formula, massivore, and frozen krill

Pack the HITH holes with metronidazole. Should clear it up for you. I would do that ASAP though.
