Coralline can come in hues from red to orange purple pink. Most of mine is either red or purple. I have had some to be hot pink. Can you get a more focused and detailed pic? It may appear blue due to your lights?

I don't think that's coralline, looks too veiny in the growth pattern.

And plus one on the sponge. The fact that it only grows in cracks and crevices makes me think it's a sponge.

It's not a sponge it's not growing like that it grows like algae
