I have not tried it myself, but I hear panaque love carrots. In any case, c-tene beta is used in color enhancing fish foods to bring out the reds and oranges in vibrant fish, so I would say that you can safely bet that your fish will become more colorful.

Yup, my gibbiceps have lovely orange/red highlights on them. There was a time that i fed one with and one without, and the one grew to have a lot more red pigment, but it was hardly a conclusive study, as every ones an individual. However like COL said, chances are it will make them more colourful, and i suppose more specacular effects would be created to fish that already have the red pigments on some level.
