I just got this frag and it looks like all the mushrooms will have to be removed from the rock. This purple algae is all over it. Any idea what this is?

Looks like either red grape algae ir red bubble algae
Vibrant liquid or a couple of emerald crabs should take this down although I’m not fond of emerald crabs

I pulled the mushrooms off of the plug and tossed it. I am just really curious because I have never seen one like this. It was a little like a vine where it was spreading.
