Yes, the gravitational attraction of the Moon is the chief agent creating tides.
The name of the tide during first and last quarters of the moon is called a neap tide. This tide occurs when the gravitational forces of the sun and moon are perpendicular to each other.
The effects are the moon phases, eclipses, and the high tide and low tide.
While the moon's gravity does influence tides in the ocean, red tides are caused by an overgrowth of algae, not by the moon's gravitational pull. Red tides occur when algae populations rapidly increase due to factors like nutrient pollution, warm water temperatures, and calm seas.
When the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out, Earth experiences a neap tide.

yes there is a correlation between high tide and moon rise because the higher the moon gets in the sky the higher the tide will be.

The Moon.
On Earth, ocean tides are caused by the moon. This is because the moon is pulling on the surface of the Earth and the water in the ocean which is closer to the moon is pulled upward. This upward surge causes high tide while on the opposite side of the Earth (where the moon is furthest from the water) there is a low tide.
