What is the bluest blue bulb in 48" T-5 out there..
Mine are cheepies and aren't too blue..

Either the geissman, or the UVL 454. Both are REALLY blue.

I ran giesemanns for a while and switched this last time to fauna marin aquascience blue. Better color, flourecense, growth than giesemann.

Either Giesemann Actinic+ or ATI Blue Plus. I have used both, the giesemann are a darker blue, but a lot of people prefer the ATI. I usually order ATI's from reefgeek.com when I replace my bulbs.

ATI B+, 308 par and great color. There are a few close seconds imo but i overdrive the ati b+'s for 10mths with very good success.

I vote for ATI blue+ too, they are the best tube out there. Bright, good PAR and Blue.

my tank is 6ft, light up by 4 x 2ft ATI blue +

I always recomend three places. Reefgeek, premium aquatics or DIY reef. All three are top notch imo.
