marble pebble shower floor -- sealing, grout?

We are putting flat random pebble mosaic, Nero Marquina marble, on the shower floor. We will be using a color enhancer to make it nice and dark. I am considering whether to use SpectraLOCK epoxy or regular grout.

Does the enhancer make the pebbles slippery? Unless there is something better, I'm planning to use Miracle 511 Seal & Enhance, which would be applied after setting but before grouting.

Is epoxy grout more slippery than regular grout?

One thing we don't like about my wife's shower floor, which is made with 4x4 porcelain tiles, is that it is too slippery. We are trying to get away from that by having more grout, and a less slippery surface material.

Thanks, and any recommendations on other details would be appreciated. I'm not doing the work myself, but want to make sure that it is done in the best way.
