I am trying to take pictures of my corals. I turn off all pumps, I have LEDs that are not dimmable and have tried under blue and also white but this is what I get. Can anyone help? I have a Nikon point and shoot camera. I use the close-up setting.

can you do custom white balance? if so put something white under the water and use it for your white reference..

I agree! The issue you run into with the Point n' Shoot is that the camera is doing all the processing for you. The lights gets the processor all confused and causing everything to come out bluer. You can also bring the image into image software, but it is always best if you can shoot in RAW format.
