Default corraline algae

So is it kinda a pink purple color? There is some growing on my snails and a little on the live rock. It just started. The diatoms are almost gone and I have some green going on in there. ITs starting to look good with all the colors that are not brown

Coraline is a very good sign! yes, pink/purple is the most common color.

guys I have got to get my MHs and a ro/di unit, I am struggling trying to get the coraline to take off, water parimaters are fine, just lacking the right equipment.
