Looks like sponge to me. You an scrape or peel it off if you don't want it there.

Yeah they do!

If it were my rock, I would rid of the paly's and keep the sponge, haha!

Well it looks like the pink stuff stays. another bonus courtesy of the local fish store. Thanks

Its a Sponge.

We have a few types in our tank too, Until now I hadn't seen one growing around Zoas/Palys.. hopefully it dosen't choke them or stop new growth.

I thought I might try to move the palys if thats even possible. As a rookie I'll try anything

 

[Reefing Madness]

No, you don't want to be cutting Palys off of there. If your water is clean the sponge will die out. If you just got the rock from the LFS, I'd wait a bit to see if it recedes.

Its been in there for a while now and the tank appears to be healthy. I will wait it out.

The sponge will be prettier than those Pali's anyway

Lol , thats what I wad thinking to be honest. But since I wasn't sure what it was I had to be skeptical of its future.
