I currently have 3 blue LED Ecoxotic stunner strips on my tank for blue LED light viewing. However I would like to add more LEDs so I can have full tank coverage. I really would like a Reef Brite Strip. Would mixing the blue of Stunner Strips with the blue of a Reef Brite make a weird color? Or will one over power the other? Or what?

Not sure, i would assume though that they would both have the same color range as far as wavelength goes. i wouldnt see an issue.
its like mixing royal blue and blue together, you get a mix of both colors.

It would probably be better than just keeping with one brand so that you cover a little broader range.
