Bright Blue algae

Just got a frag in not too long ago and found some algae growing on it. Just added in a 55w 50/50 bulb to my regular 10ks and just that amount of actinic made this algae glow bright blue, normally being a drab green.

Took a bunch of pics with the crappy cam and this one is the only decent pic. Not too much of it yet, but it's growing so can't wait to see how blue the rest gets. On my screen, this is exactly how blue it is:
