Yep, it's a really bad picture. Clove polyps or something like that? I'd just wait till they grew a little and try again for a pic.

They look like Daisy/Clove polyps.

Keep them in decent, random flow and clean of detritus and they should bounce back.

They're good, but much like Xenia and GSP, I've heard they can reach plague proportions and cause trouble for other corals. I believe they can grow over sand/gravel as well, while Xenia/GSP can not.
