I was wondering what the pinkish purple coral is on the right hand side (assuming it is a coral)? If anyone has an idea... Let me know.

Coralline Algae? I can't see it so well...

need a closer picture

I really can't, unfortunately! The camera won't zoom in any more without losing focus - the same effect can be done by just using a "zoom in" with the windows image preview program... It looks like little star-shaped pink/purple polyps with white heads coming out of a purple base.
