So I have adopted a pair of clownfish

They have been together for quite some time. The female is a true percula and the male is a platinum percula. They spawned in the past but have been neglected severely. I need to fatten these guys up again. They have lost a lot of body mass. Any recommendations for a great mush to fatten them up? Recipes? Recipes for breeding pairs?
 
My clowns go nuts for NLS pellets and they are a great food source, that and mysis/mixed seafood.
 
The male has a "sunken" belly so I have been feeding them like crazy to try to get him healthier. He shows small improvements but nothing noticeable really. I feel like I should move over to frozen.
 
I feed my pair mainly Rods Food, but also mix in whatever I can get --mysis, chopped up fish, brine, etc. I also have Otohime TDO which seems to work well for color.
 
I once adopted as you a severely malnourished scribbled angelfish. I fed him live blackworms and he fattened up within a couple of weeks. I know some subscribe to "not their natural diet, no good", but for some reason live blackworms fatten up fish fast. Nothing beats live foods for fattening up fish, (brine shrimp excluded). Frozen protein rich stuff works, but not as well in my experience.
