    Yeah, tons of SPS are blue, that's what I first thought. That only applies if you do SPS, though.

    You can usually find some blue chalices, and some of them tend to be cheaper if you're talking the deep blue you mentioned before. There's blue mushrooms, blue zoanthids, blue candy canes, blue doughnut coral (acanthophyllia), micromussa (probably blastomussa too), I think there's a cyphastrea that's deeper blue....

    You really do have lots of options.

    Blue candy canes sound pretty awesome.

    If you look on LiveAquaria, they have pictures of some really blue candy canes. You won't necessarily get that color, though, because LA doesn't quite work as a WYSIWYG. A LFS would be a better option.
