Well the majority of pretty blue cichlids would be africans, so I would say some would be,
- Kenyi cichlids(females) - Colbalt Zebras - Malawi eye biter - Johanni cichlids - Socolofi - Saulosi(males) Thats the africans I can think of right now, but I'm sure theres more. In terms of New World cichlids I would suggest the following, though they are completely Blue, -Blue acara -Discus -Jack Dempsey -Honduran red Points ( a tinge of blue )

Just remember, not all blue cichlids will work with your tank
 In fact, most wont.

You'll need a dedicated African tank for those. I don't suggest adding them to your current tank.
They are gorgeous though.

Those guys would probably kill your parrots... unfortunately it isn't a very good idea to mix africans and south/central americans.
