I am planning to align my 12"x24" porcelain tiles with 1/8" grout lines. I am going to have hardiebacker board to put my tiles on. This is for a bathtub wall

1. Do I use unsanded or sanded grout? Does it really matter for 1/8" grout lines?
2. Is epoxy grout better or cement grout better?
3. Does anyone have any recommendations for really good grout? I do not mind paying more grout!
4. Any good recommendations for good grout sealant? I also do not mind paying more grout sealer!

Have you ever done any tile before? What type of moisture barrier are you planning for under the tile? Do you have any tile tools?
 
I would highly recommend Fusion grout. It costs about $50 for a 1 gallon premixed tub. I believe it is a "one part epoxy". In any case, it is extremely difficult to stain. I use it in all of my rental properties.
