I've used Meth Blue, it really helped the eggs from growing fungus. Discus spooked just a little seeing the blue ink spreading the tank. But I haven't seen any cons.

MB is optional and does not help with fertilization.
Pros:

Cons:
- Will stain equipment
- Large water change is required to remove the stain.
- It may cause defects if fry are expose for too long.
- Will kill beneficial bacteria
