New to this: Identify Red spot near galaxy

I just started on galaxy zoo as part of an assignment for a class I am taking. So far I love it. Can anyone help identify the red spot near this galaxy. Is this anything of significance or just something in the background. Thanks,

Hi mrengel314 and welcome to the Zoo
The red dot could be a small galaxy or a bigger one in the background. No way to tell from just this image. Here is the image in the optical (image flipped). But it doesn't tell us much more. The objects are just to faint and fuzzy
