I think its dead, it came in on my live rock...I just wonder what it could be.

Are you talking about the red stuff? If so, it is coraline algae (good stuff).
If you are talking about the white/tannish stuff, it could be a encrusting sponge (a harmless filter feeder).
 
Yes I mean't that spongy thing... I probably should have circled it in paint or something sorry about that, but thank you.
 
I have them growing all over the place in my tank. The ones exposed to direct lighting will probably die off anyway as they like shaded areas.
