They look like VDMs or KO Nightmares. Compare Drainbamage's collection thread for the KO nightmares. I haven't seen either of those polyps in person so I'm no expert tho

NP I'll have to get some from you :) If they are more orange they are most likely the KOs from what I understand. Bn251 also has some that are called screamers that look similar too. I'll see if I can find his pic in my pm box.

I looked back and the screamers don't have that black ring in the middle. You got VDMs I believe. SAVE ME SOME POLYPS!
