Identification help, please!

[Mauricio]

Hi all,

I have a couple of thing that I don't know what they are or if they're good or bad. One is the red spot on the rock to the right. It isn't red slime, this looks and has the consistency of red cellophane paper. It looks kinda cool, but I don't know if it's bad. The other thing is the greenish/brownish patch growing right next to the red spot. It looks hairy and closes/hides when touched (it kinda resembles a zoomed in tongue). 
Could anyone please help me identify them?
Here's some pics!


Thanks!

First one looks like haleymenia macro algea

I would say red slime yes and then the coral is a fungii or a tongue coral

That s what I thought but I can't tell from the pic if its covering the surface or leafy like.

I don't think it's red slime. It's kinda leafy.

Google macro algae types, specifically the one I mentioned above see if you find a ID.

I'm not really sure if the red stuff is actually an Algae? I have the same stuff in my tanks. had a piece of rock in a bucket with a lid on it, with no light for over a year. Took it out of the bucket and looked like it had more on it the when I put it in... anyone know if sponges can grow in a leafy form?

 

[reeffreak]

It definitely macro algae. A sponge would die off in a heart beat in a bucket.

Another thing I've noticed about that stuff is when it grows it starts out as a thin layer with a teardrop shaped bubble, the same coloring but with a metallic blue tint and spots on it (very feint gotta be close to see it).

Does it have little speckles threw out the "leafy" part?

After looking at some specimens, I believe it is halymenia. Thanks for the responses. I'll have to wait until it grows some more to be able to tell for sure.
