I have this hot pink coralline but in only grows in complete darkness. I find it on rocks or shells that I dig out of the sand and if I leave it in the light it dies. Anybody seen this?

I have some pink like that, that grows out in the open. I'd pet yours was purple and got bleached while in the sand though, but there is pink and lime green coraline too.
 
Marine biologists have seen coralline growing at 800 ft. At that depth there is little or no light. They can't explain it.
 
yep lots of different types of coralline, deep water, shallow water, cold water and tropical water. colors vary from different area's as well.

In one of my old tanks I use to get orange and green then it would die off purple would grow then the orange and green would come back, not sure why??
