need id is this a type of coraline?

This is my first set up and i have 85 lbs of dry rock sitting waiting for the cycle to start the shrimp is all fuzzy so hopefully i start seeing something soon. To seed the tank i bought a piece of live rock that looked good in the store but in the tank you can see more clearer. I know the purple is coraline but what about the crimson red spots?if it is bad should i pull the one 5lb piece of lr out? the cycle is just starting and it has only been in there for 3 days. thanks!
