If it's encrusting on the rock, it is probably coraline. Unfortunately, the color won't stick around and it will likely turn purple. I did have some flourescent growths show up on some of my LR in the beginning and that seemed to develop into some red bubble algae. I vacuumed those out and never saw it again.
