Kinda reminds me more of aptasiaappears to be palythoa. They can spread aggressively, and produce toxins that can be extremely dangerous if damaged.
Interesting, I have similar in my tank but treat them like aptasiaCommonly called button polyps. They can spread rapidly and in time smother corals and take up any free space you have. It’s not an emergency thing, but keep an eye out for them “taking over”
So a nuisance coral... was hoping that was not the case. Since it is attached to the same frag as my other coral, I'm assuming I should take them off before they smother it?Commonly called button polyps.

Yours are beautiful! So as long as I isolate it from other corals I shouldn't have a problem with it?Not aiptasia. Palythoa. Comes in different colors. The green ones are nice. Fortunately mine came on rocks I was able to isolate and I have 3 varieties
1) these surprisingly have not multiplied too fast. Started as 1 and after a year I have this
2) these also have not multiplied fast, but instead have grown large 2” stalks with 1” or larger polyps
Both are on individual rocks adjacent
3) these are nearly identical to number 1, but multiplied rapidly! I can’t tell where their rock starts or ends. But they are very nice in person
