Identification? Coral?

[nickloeuf]

Hey guys

Anyone knows what that thing could be? Is it a coral? It's growing on my rock, good looking but I'd like to know what it is. Its color is a pale pink, peach, white ... hard to tell.

here's a pic

It looks like a macro algea. Is it soft?

Well, it's not really soft... i'm no expert when it comes to corals tbh but I'd say it's more hard than soft..

Does it inflate or change appearance at any point? I agree it looks like a Macro Algae but not sure what species if it is.

It doesn't change appearance.. maybe at night but i'd be surprised!

Yours kind of reminds me of this but yours in more pink. Idk if macroalgae changes color based on lighting.

Macros will change color based on lighting and nutrient levels.....I have seen Dragon's Breath almost look like different species from one tank to the next.
