steels have the green mouth with no ring around it.....hornets have the green ring circling the mouth

The Blue Steels have green on both skirts from I can tell. I have a piece from Levi and its definatly a blue steel.

I'm pretty sure the ones I traded you were Purple Hornets Ryan, hows that frag doing for you btw? Haha ironically we are probably arguing about the exact same species just exhibiting a different morphotype. Although mine don't alternate (All of them exhibit the metallic green color), IMO they look more like Hornets (Purple) than the Blue Steels.

Those sound pretty tasty, you should probably put a statement of liability exclusion otherwise you might get into a lawsuit Kien...
