I have used foods with spirulina for blue accentuation but I have not found it to help.

I don't believe there are any additives or foods that will specificly improve blue color that's not hormone related.

Yeah, I personally feel that a healthy well rounded diet is the key to accentuating blue in blue fish, aside from genetics.

Hi Zuja,
There are foods that claim to enhance blue color but IME they just don't work. Spirolina is also said to enhance blue but I don't think so.
As Eddie mentioned, the best way to get the best blue out of your discus is to keep them healthy and vibrant through nutritional means.
