Nightmare's and Darth Maul's... What's the difference?

[Tswifty]

Hey guys,

I thought I knew the difference between Nightmare Palythoas and Darth Maul Palythoas. However, lately I've seen more and more pics that have me confused. Can someone please explain... or even better... show me the difference between the two?

Here are my Nightmare Palythoas (at least that's what I purchased them as).

Yes, that's nightmare.

The DM are totally different.:wink:

Darth Maul are more orange in person and have a totally different pattern

Ok... does anyone have pictures of Darth Mauls?

Nice! Thanks for the pic Marvin.


What's that saying... A picture is worth a thousand words? LOL

They LOOK great, you can't go wrong with either in your tank.

I ordered some Nightmares from Mike today, for the second time, the first ones mealted away also, and am hoping to have better luck this time around. The first time, I had them in the bottom third of the tank, depending on what mike tell me to do, I am planning on putting them in the top third of the tank this time, wish me luck, lol.

I don't think Junior's pic is Darth Mauls, they look more like Red Spackles from tomasz. Tomasz's have the ring formed by red tentacle tips, and most of the red right in the center. The pics I've seen of Darth Mauls have the red all over the place on the polyp, sometimes with radiating lines out from the center.

This is in no way besmirtching the polyps Junior posted, as I have some and I think they are actually cooler than Darth Mauls ;D

I just got these Nightmares yesterday from M. Flricordia. The pic is the best I can do. They look better than the pic shows.

[Reefinginpasadena]

[Tswifty]

Thanks for the pics guys... wish we had more pics though... come on, more than 1 or 2 people have to have Darth Mauls!

I have three teeny, tiny darth mauls... too small to get a good representative picture with my mediocre camera.
