I've got all these little orange pods on one of my rocks, they are all about the same size. It looked like they were going to grow, but haven't. Anyone know what these are?

One more question, I've also got these green plants growing on one rock, (about 4 inches heigh) Don't have pics for either, sorry. Anyone have any clues?
 
Hmm.
Well, the orange pods could be a cluster of tunicates. The plant could be any macro. If it is kinda flat and growing like a cactus, it could be halimeda. Really need more of a description to help you ID it better.
 
Are tunicates good or bad? I have never seen my tang or foxface go for either. The plants look like little cloves. For instance a stem will have like six or seven of these small little cloves on it.
 
Thanks for the link!! I found them, they are Halimeda incrassata!
