Hello!

I have this very interesting orange Algae (I think) growing around my rocks. Does anyone know what it is? Is it good? Bad? Should I be worried


I recently had a drop on my salinity so maybe that is what caused it but don’t really know what it could be I have some imagines to help identify it

Are you sure that is not a sponge?
 
It’s a type of encrusting algae similar to Coraline, the name has skipped my mind but it does look really good under blue light. I wouldn’t worry with it, as long as you like the look.
