Would someone mind id’ing this paly/zoa? It’s the only thing growing well in my tank… so naturally I’m worried it’s a pest

I actually like how it looks, but a little worried about it being one of the palytoxin kinds.

To you question...if it is a zoa or a paly...it carries palyotoxins. They are invasive weeds that just happen to be pretty. Be careful around them, handle with care..dont smoke them and you should be fine.
