I did the deed almost all of us are guilty of...
I couldn't resist saving one of those death cubes.

Could I get some feedback on my Repotting job? Am I planting them low enough?

Also, the specimen is so beautiful it makes me wonder if it's a known cultivar, does this look familiar to anyone?
It's green on the outside and deep red on the inside and red fingers (much like the one on this forums logo)

The little 5cm/2" pot had something like 10 plants in it!Image

That looks pretty good. Congratulations. That looks like a Rocket Farms flytrap. If it is, they don't hold on to that coloration without some really intense lights.

Not rocket farms, this is from a nursery here in NZ - alongside this they were selling a full red cultivar
