What are the bluest zoas?

[Reefing_addiction]

I want some good blue zoas. Like a rich saturated blue Zoa.

Does anyone know the name of one like that?

The images of the AOI look very blue but do have a yellow/green center.

Blue kiss, frozen hornet. AOI looks pretty dull imo.

Blue hornets are my favorite blue ones. Tubs blues are all blue.

When my tank is ready I really want some Blue Hornets. I stumbled across this online seller that had a pretty extensive list of variations. I had fun looking through the different colors.

AOI's are probably the brightest blue. Miami Vice are also a nice blue. Blue Hornets are a very deep blue as are the Tubbs Blue. These are all classic must haves. Some other nice ones that have blue in them are LC Nightshades, Frozen Armagedons, Blue Curacaos and Frozen Hornets.

Y’all are forgetting the smurfetts by Top Shelf they have a bright yellow skirt but it’s a super nice blue centered polyp I love mine I also have the AOI and hornets but the smurfetts are brighter imo

Thank you everyone definitely gave me some zoas for thought! I’ll probably try and collect all the ones y’all listed!

My AIO Zoas

Ice armageddons, frozen armageddons and blue lagoons are the bluest blue aside from AOI.

I’m really liking the AOIs. I’ve seen some pretty blue ones that are blue and orange and I like those too!

I can’t wait till I can sneak more zoas into my tank!

I had some Aoi (capitalization not necessary, it's literally the Japanese word for 'blue') zoas in my tank, before an evil fish ate them... and pictures really don't do them justice.

Try and get them during one of WWC's live sales, they can be very spendy otherwise. Expect fierce competition. =) Of course, if you don't mind the price, you can buy them when you feel like it from WWC.

Blue hornet!! Some fire and ice are also very blue. VW bloodshot is a lighter blue when mature (far right in middle pic) Also doesn’t break the bank!

Ran across these today on “the curated reef”. Never seen them before but I think they even have tubbs blues beat IMO.

Tubbs, blue orgasms and Blue hornets

AOI and spidermans. Though I haven't seen spidermans much, they're a little bluer than tubbs and have a red/orange skirt. Blue hornets are more of a purpley blue IMO.

If only I could have taken a better picture, but my AOI zoas are fantastic. Definitely an awesome blue zoa, but I still want more and you guys definitely threw some more blue zoas ideas out there!

Doesn’t get any bluer than “tubbs blues”.
