Blueberry oscars look like albinos but with a pale blue hue. I don't know of any expos, but I can point you towards a few good LFS in Brooklyn and Staten Island.

Blue oscars are artificially dyed. The process is extremely hard on the the fish and many die in the process. The color isn't permanent, eventually it will fade and you're left with a regular "albino".

Good to know. I was kind of wondering about that. Didnt think it was a natural thing. Still think they were pretty nice looking though.
