Sorry for the size...having issues resizing the images.
Is this coral line algae, or is it something else growing in my tank?
Thanks

thats what I thought, because I have the normal purplish coral line on other rocks in the tank, but I didnt know if this was a different kind or not.

The picture makes it hard to tell,but i think its coral line algea. try to remove it with your hand or any thing saltwater safe.if it can be removed without trouble its algea.if its hard then its coral line.

this is coraline alage at the bottom there is redish on top of some purple coraline algae. I think what you have is the start of cyno bacteria outbreak.
