I got this freebie but I don’t want any palys in my tank! Is it a large zoa or is it a paly? I can from New York reef aquatic and they called it an “omega”.

if its the "corn bread corals omega" then its a zoa, not paly. only way to confirm is under blue light, if the skirt is pink - then its a CB Omega Zoa.

NYRA does sell them on their website, so i am confident in this ID.

Looks like Zoanthus; I don't see any capitulary ridges, and the mesoglea doesn't look rough/sandy. Would need to see it in the tank to be sure.
