What is this? It’s spreading...

Anyone know what this red algae(?) is?

Looks like coraline algae to me, I have coraline of the same color, if it blows off though it's probably cyano but does not look like that to me.

Didn’t know coralline was dark red like that, I’ll try blowing it off. Thanks mvallee

If it is cyano, you can blow it off. If it is coraline algae, it will stay put.
