I am trying to find out what these little polyps are. They look like micro clove polyps or Xenia. Anyone have any ideas? Are they bad?

I'm thinking blue clove polyps.
Better photos and additional under white lighting will help.

I can see they are a type of clove polyp but its hard to tell what they really are, I would try and get a better photo, maybe one under white light

Here are some more photos in white light. Sorry for the poor quality, my phone is not great.

Also, thank you to all the replies! They look like purple clove polyps, but any more information is appreciated :)
