Red slime?
Red slime? If This helps, it's pink and it's growing lighter toward the ends. Seems like finger sponge. I don't think it's finger sponge though.

Mr. X is probably right about the coralline, but the dark red stuff on the rocks looks like red slime (a type of bacteria).

If you can't scratch it off easily, it's also coralline algae. It comes in many colors.
