Well at the moment the current two fountain pens that I am using at work are Sheaffer PFM (green body with gold car, I think this is the Series I, Made in USA) and a Shaeffer Targa Gold (Made in Australia) both with 14K Medium Nibs.

 

Anyhow the Sheaffer PFM has Pelikan Royal Blue ink in it and the Targa has Montblanc Mystery Black.

 

Love both inks and nice to write with as well.

Diamine Majestic Blue - Sheaffer Legacy Heritage (F)

Diamine Ancient Copper - Sheaffer Triumph Imperial (M)

Lamy Turquoise - Lamy Studio (M)

 

DMB looks awesome coming out of a fine nib...every time I use it I always ask myself why I don't use it more often.

 

I'm enjoying "living on the edge" using Lamy Turquoise on a day-to-day basis (it's become one of my favorite inks).

 

Lots of people have raved about Ancient Copper...I'm just not feeling it. It seems rather brown to me, almost like Waterman Havana, which I rarely use.

The only pens I have inked up on hand at the moment:

 

Diamine Green/Black - TWSBI Mini (EF)

Private Reserve Midnight Blue - F-C Collegia (M stub)

Pilot Black cartridge - Pilot 78G (Broad)

 

The Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo in my Pilot VP (fine) ran out today, and I'm completely out of it. I'm off to find something to take its place. Would like to make this this pen used for fun inks.

 

Also have to fill a Pelikan M200 (F), but would like to keep it filled with just one ink that I have a bottle of.

Strangely I have 5 blues and a purple (tanzanite) on the go.

 

Didn't mean it to be that way, usually have only 3 blues on the go.

 

The blues, to my best guess looking at the line laid out...

 

Noodler's Blue

PR DC 2004 Supershow Blue

Parker Penman Sapphire

Lamy Blue

PR American Blue

 

 

If you get a chance, can you write a little sample with each? I'll post it to show how your Tanzanite really is a purple not a blue.
