UV or Blue CCFL?

I want to get a nice blue color to the inside of my case like the following:

Are they using UV or Blue CCFL in that case?

I'm not sure if I want to go with the blue ccfl because i'm worried they may be too bright, but I don't want the UV to be too dark since I probably wont have any other UV things in there. Anyone have any picture of their blue ccfl case so I can see just how bright they are?
 
but will it give off any of the blueish hue like it does in the second case? that's the blue i'm going for
 
Looks like a blue CC to me, I had one in my case and it was that color. Why it kinda looks like a UV light, the blue CC lights do make uv-reactive things glow slightly. A true UV tube won't be as bright and UV lights are more purple in hue.

I have that case. The one in the picture definately has UVs, but the majority of the blue you see is coming from the Fans. They are hella bright. and light the case up without a cathode. It is an aspire x dreamer. http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-144-026&depa=0
I put UVs in mine because I have reactive wire looms. It looks sweet. My boy had blue cathods in his case and after seeing mine he had to have the uvs.
The guy must have had the same problem I did. He mounted the top fan on the outside because the power supply was too long.
