Just beginning my time with corals and I was given this frag with palys and zoas. I am not able to identify that coral front and center, hoping to get some help identifying it?

That is, unfortunately, likely an Aiptasia Anemone.

Yes i agree it is an aptasia, so to prevent spreading uou are best off covering it over with super glue or it will uncontrollably spread. I made the mistake of leaving it too long
