I've had both and I prefer blue but it really boils down to what you like yourself since taste is a rather personal thing. You are the one that will see it every day so make it what you like and don't get caught up in worrying about the opinions of others.

You wouldn't consider white? Here's a pic of an old tank of mine if you want a reference.

Its nice because the white background sort of adopts what ever color temp your bulbs are. To me it give the most depth and is the most natural looking.
