I feel like something exciting is happening every night in my tank these days! I noticed this tonight. Is this a baby frogspawn polyp (hard to get a clear photo)?

Yes but they only stay that size. Growth of the large polyps occurs from splitting. Pretty cool though.

I recently had one of the heads split too! That's why I was surprised to see the little one. I knew they split but didn't know they did this. Pretty awesome!

They may not grow big like your other heads but it’s a great sign that you have a happy healthy coral!
 
Congrats on the baby polyp!
