Could you mix purple foodcoloring with Aquamend?

I use aquamend for my frags, but can't stand the bright white color...I know there are other epoxys that are purple. Has anyone ever added purple food coloring to the stuff to make it purple?

I have removed overflows from a tank and it's not too hard. Razorblade the silicone as much as you can and then muscle it a little. I have seen bulkhead plugs, but I'm sure siliconing it would work.
