What kind of plaque is that?
Sponge, alga, bacteria ... ?
To the left: Clathria jolicoeuri
What kind of sponge creates offshoots (upper left corner, see especially pic#3)? I observed two lookalike specimen that were growing long, thin offshoots. Unfortunately I did not spot this immediately, but on screen at home, so I did not check where the offshoot was leading to.
