Life on live rock identification

[Jon Schuch]

I am fairly new to Salt Water aquariums or at least just getting back into the hobby. I had one in the past and other than introducing a new light too quickly I was fairly successful with it. I have never had real live rock from the Florida Gulf however so I just need help identifying some of this stuff in case some is bad. Hopefully all good...lol
Do I am curious what the orange, pink and black blobs are that are on the rock?

Sponges, good to have and they're filter feeders, they'll help with the water quality.

Where did you get your rock from? I have some TBS hopefully coming soon.

Let me know what you get on it, I am thinking about adding some to my tank

Okay. I have a build thread that I am documenting with the TBS rock so whenever I get it I will post A TON of stuff about it. And tons of pics!

#1 - halimeda (macroalgae)
#2 - Red macroalgae
#3 - Sponge

All are reef safe

My live rock came from Live Rock N Reef out of Florida

So the Halimeda is the green leafy stuff but the black blob just below those? Red macro algae is the red tree branch looking stuff but the orange and pink blobs? I do have a bunch of yellow sponges too yes. But unfortunately some aiptasia too. Otherwise pretty nice rock with new life popping up all the time. Been roughly 2 weeks in tank now.
