Hrmz, might be due to several reasons, one of them being having a low calcium level, but its seems not in your case. Have you just started your tank? Give it some time and you'll be able to see it grow.

Coralline algae prefer a moderately lit environment with calcium concentration of about 400 - 440 mg/l, and a KH of above 7dkh.

Coralline algae do not respond well to phosphates and nitrates. It will prevent or stun algae growth.Phosphates and nitrates should be low.

Best results can be expected at a magnesium concentration of 1400 mg/l Magnesium can be the cause for stunned growth if all the other parameters check out fine.
