Hello everyone...

In addition to providing frozen foods (mysis, brine, bloodworms etc.) I wanted to get some opinions of the best flake and pellet food that should be used for smaller fish, such as clowns, fire fish, royal gramma, gobies, etc. Thanks fore the input!
 
My fish love love love Sustainable Aquatics Hatchery Diet. I have lots of success with finicky eaters taking to this food.
 
Sustainable foods are great and get them in different size pellets for different fish. They are also very reasonable priced, so buy the bigger cans.

Much more expensive, is the Salifert Energy pellet food. I find this to be one of the best foods for getting fish to eat pellets, even finicky and shy fish.

In my auto feeder I use a mix of Sustainable, Salifert, Spectrum and Otohine.

I feed New Life Spectrum foods. I have all sizes for all fish. I've gotten a this'd on it in a day, so I consider it to be a food that gets the finicky to eat. I don't like how fast some of the larger pellets sink, but the fish or crabs still get them. I feed the NLS flake as more or a vitamin source/too lazy to thaw food at that time. I just brought a ruby red dragonet in and he is loving the .5mm sinking Thera A as many of my smaller fish have.
