These little things look like shelves...they're all over the rock. Any clue?

The shelf looks like it’s part of the natural formation of the rock. Looks like it’s getting covered in red coralline algae. It’s Alive!
 
They are soft like mushrooms...I couldn't get a good picture...yes, there is lots of coraline algae though!
 
Could be a small patch of cyano. Have you tried blowing it off? It’s also possible that it is a type of coral. Does it recede into rocks or react to light changes ?
