Algae really just on one Rock

So I have some thick hairy algae in my tank but it’s on only one rock, and little bit on another small rock at the bottom but is there any reason it would appear mostly only on this rock?

Maybe that rock has more PO4 bound up in it.

Looks like a new tank, I would take that rock out. Looks like a potential massive headache.

Conditions are good in those spots or it is just starting to grow there and will spread to other rocks over time.

Smart! It is a new tank and I wasn’t sure if I should but definitely will when I get home
