That looks like a type of coraline or another type of encrusting algae to me.
Sorry for the bad pics. My camera is in Georgia.
What is this on my curing rock? Is it bubble Algae or some kind of green coralline?
If it's bubble algae, should I scrub it off while I'm curing?
I'd rather be good slow than bad fast.

-Scott"Do I really look like a guy with a plan?"
Thanks. It looked more like coralline because it was opaque and not shiney, but I wasn't sure.
However I was unsure whether Coralline came in that color.

Coralline can be in MANY colors and shades... anything from greens to browns to orange to of course pink & purple.

Take nothing from the sea unless it is plentiful.

Bubble algae will look like green glass bubbles.
Very shiny.

People come into our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Yes, I would consider it a favorable type of algae.
dont forget red in color as well
