Now that you mention it, that is right. The show I watched said that different bugs/algae live in different salinities and make different colors. But these bugs were harmless as I recall.

There are other bugs that live in stagnant water and are pink but they make H2S which will kill you if you come into contact with it (absorbed through skin).
