I'm slowly getting some sticks... looking for some ideas on Blue and or Purple colored sticks. I've always liked the Blue Tenius and Sapphire Mille but what others are out there... captive grown and in the hobby for a long time preferably.

I love the Oregon Tort. A nice blue to it. I personally don't have it, but on my wish list.

I like blue tenius too, but the last time i had one, it looked blue under MH and purple under my lights which was 6500k. I guess i will try again this time with bp T5. My purple sps looks a bit blue under bp T5

Nobody has mentioned Blueberry field, its a really nice acro. Tyree blue matrix, Cali tort, Oregon tort, planet earth acro, blue hoeksemai, pearlberry. I've got all of the above acros, and they are all super nice, with great colors. One on the list is I haven't gotten yet is purple monster. Super cool growth pattern.

Best blue is Oregon tort
Multi colored with blue : pearl berry, ultimate rainbow acropora, Hawkins echinata, garf bonsai
Best red: red planet but options include red dragon or strawberry shortcake or any other shortcake
Best green: green slimer or lime in the sky. Options include lots of fluorescent green like toxic tort, tat's psammacora, etc, carrolinia for shape and paletta pink tip for multicolor or strawberry fields
Best yellow: reef raft pink Floyd but pricey
Best purple is purple monster but options include stylophora
Best orange is setosa, option would be forest fire digi or superman digi


Sapphire Millie is a stunner, bubble gum Millie's are great generally red with blue tips, and then of course pc rainbow acro, pc superman acro, purple dragon eyes. The list is endless and everyone has a favorite or two or three...
