Color Ehancer for Apistogramma

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie on keeping apistogramma I currently have a batch of fry of Borelli Opal and Agassizi Double Red.
The fry is now 2 weeks old.

I was wondering if it is ok to feed the fry Color Enhancer food once a day to boost the color and intensity when they get older.

And.. Will it affect with the fertility of the fish in the future? Cause I often hear that if you feed to much C.E fish food it will reduce the rate of the eggs hatching or it will never hatch.

I hope some of you tried already. I really need some advice about this. Thank you!

I second Mike's statement, if it it is hormone based it likely would mess with the growth and health of the fish, meanwhile a soley nutrient based mixture is unlikle to do harm. I have never raised fry, but this is more just common sense.
