Hi everyone,

I'm very new to reef aquariums and bought a very small coral from Petco. I know it's not the best place to buy coral from however I just wanted to get something in my tank as a test for my first coral. I have no idea what I bought as it was sold as an "assorted mini frag". I thought it was a Zoanthid however, after further research it appears to be much smaller than any Zoa I've found online. Does anyone know what this is or if it will grow larger like most zoas? For reference each polyp is smaller than an eraser on a pencil.

pretty tough to get a good picture but this is the best I got:
