Just curious if the corals listed above can or do grow under just blue led's?

They may or may not survive for awhile but just blue light isn't very sufficient. you would have better luck including hyper violet, ultra violet, blue, royal blue and anything inbetween, then include just a hint of the orange & red part of the spectrum. White light covers a majority of the spectrum all with one light but at different intensities throughout the spectrum, pretty useful to 'fill in' missing parts of the light spectrum.

gotcha, so with hyper violet, ultra violet , royal blue etc, and different blue spectrums, then they would grow decently ?
