The most commonly talked about form of coralline algae is the purple & pink encrusting algae that grows in the aquarium - on the rocks, glass, etc. You can buy live rock with coralline algae growing on it, and with proper calcium and alkalinity levels, it will slowly spread throughout the tank.

Here's a few pics of coralline algae growing on my rock:
