What's with pink algae?????

[east tx]

Hi all
I don't know what this is I guess pink Algae.
It looks like it's been splattered with a brush. Not much on the tank but power heads and etc. I think some of my rock had pink on them too.
Is this good or bad? Should I worry about it. Tank reads good, water change every 3 weeks. 55 gal.
Thanks for the help

I may have missed something.

If it is hard flakes, don't worry.
If it is slimmy, worry.

Oh, it's hard. Looks like paint.

Algea comes in many colors. I feel cheated that I don't have pink. I need to talk to the tank about that. I want pink LOL....
