They accept a wide variety of foods. Tyr formula 1 and 2. Comes in flake and frozen cubes. Dr's Foster and Smith sell it on their website.

That thread talks about a coral food. I make my own food, based on ideas from that thread, and use it for corals and fish. The thread talks about feeding fish a bit, too.
Outside of that, a mix of foods, like the frozen Formula 1, mysid shrimp, squid, and a few other meaty items would be a good start, IMO.

I feed mine mostly mysis, but i also feed formula 1 and 2
10 posts and no one's mentioned cyclopeeze yet.
That's all I feed my tank (2 ocellaris, royal gramma, yellow watchman goby) and they love it. Cyclopeeze is bright red and will stain your fingers, but it also gives the fish great color. I use the frozen, but people have had good luck with the freeze dried too (if it floats too much soak it first).

My clowns love frozen brine, frozen mysis, live brine, formula one flakes, cyclopeeze and freeze dried plankton. In other words, there isn't much they won't eat! When they see me reaching over the tank, their little noses bob right out of the water in anticipation.
