Coralline algae fluoresce orange?

On the live rock I got from TBS I have a small (1/4" or less) patch that fluoresces orange under my blue LEDs. When I look at it under my 14K MH it looks like coralline algae that is a maroon color. Not certain if it is coralline or a coral. Any thought?
 
I get some orange occasionally, but it doesn't last long, seems to go away after a week. I am thinking the MH lights are too much for it maybe? Seems to like the shade better.
