Default Red coral or something growing

Hello I am new to salt water and got given a 5 year old 45 gal tank
Anyways I notices yesterday there looks to be some red coral or something growing on the live rock. I'll post a picture tonight. It's very tiny and looks like it will branch out. Any one have any ideas

Welcome to Canreef! Sorry, I have no clue what your red mystery coral could be.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Sorry, Derrick, but if you post a pic, maybe someone could help with your coral ID.
