What is this And is it that bad?

This purple stuff has hitchhiked in and has now began growing on most of my beautiful live rock... It's a purple brown color and is like a carpet... When the lights are off it closes up and looks like some form of Xenia or polyp that almost looks black. When open it looks like star polyp but super small.

HELPPP

CAN I KILL IT OR IS IT NOT BAD

Sansibia? If it is, it will spread but won't overgrow any stony corals.

Actually looked close at the tank tonight and it seems to be messing with some zoa colonies. might be time to rip the tank down and start over. I have so much bad *** coral though what do I do. I don't wanna junk it all or spread this stuff locally to other guys or my new tank

So do I just trash all my coral and acid wash rock? I have some big $ stuff I'm super upset. I don't want to risk getting it back after I restart though or chance giving it to local reefers. What plan of action would you guys take
