I have:
4 different flake food mix
freeze dried bloodworms
slow sinking granules ( the gourami luvs em)
sinking bottom feeder shrimp pellet
betta flakes
frog bites ( might get some frogs, but I was givin the fish a couple anyways, cant hurt?)

I've always been a fan of frozen foods. I just made a new cocktail of foods for a new tank I am just now adding fish to. I think it will work for most carnivorous fish. It includes

3 types of brine shrimp (regular, omega-3 enriched, and spirulina enriched)
Bloodworms
Glassworms
Mysis Shrimp
Cyclopeeze
Something else that I can't remember...

Anyway, you probably don't have to give them all of those, but a nice treat of any or all of the above from time to time would be good for them.
