Looks like green and purple coralline. But since you just added the rock I would suspect that some or a lot of that green is about to turn into hair algae judging by the green I see down below between the glass and the sand.
its hair alge, bought 15 more snails (1 is a BIG turbo) and 3 peperment shrimp as I found some aptasia....

I have tried... but my camera is a POS so I cant get anything but fuzzy pics up close
Anyway I'm now saving for a better camera to truly capture the tank.
Oh btw how many big Mexican turbos should I put into my aquarium i was thinking 1 for every 25 gal.

me personally i wouldnt put the big turbo's in there they are like bulldozers. i would do a variety of different smaller snails, as they all eat,and do something different that helps the tank

Nice looking tank.
I personally like a variety of snails, I have turbos, nassarius, ceriths, nerite (nice because they hide during the day), astreas (don't like these guys, can't flip themselves over), trochus (can flip themselves over, don't get huge, and eat a lot), and a bunch of hitchhiker snails. I need some more, but i like the variety, because they all prefer different things, and that way everything gets covered.
