Bunch of life on dead coral ID

I had a Candy Cane Coral die a few months ago and decided to leave it in to become part of the aquascape. I got a few frags recently and while moving things around I decided to uncover this half-buried skeleton. There's a ton of stuff growing on it.

I was wondering if anyone could ID any of these, as they do not grow anywhere else in my tank and I've never seen any of them before.

What I've noticed:

1. Purple hard layer over parts of rock (probably Coraline but there's 0 anywhere else in the tank)
2. Dark crimson layer covering parts of rock (mushroom?)
3. Teal layer over parts of the rock (different colored Coraline?)
4. Right near the teal thing, there's some ivory colored branching structure
5. Dark red hair like algae

Oh, and the red squishy thing is my lost mini carpet anemone
