Default feeding my fish

I currently have 2 skunk clowns, coral beauty, coris wrasse, PJ cardinal, and a blenny. What would be the best food that all of them would eat? I feed Formula 1, Formula 2, brine and algae on a clip. Some eat one others eat this one etc etc. Should I keep just switching it up or should I feed one particular " all around food" ? Thanks !

I would stay the course. Feed a variety of foods. This makes for a much more balanced diet.

What you are using is great...EXCEPT> brine shrimp!!!!!
Buy Mysis shrimp instead of the brine shrimp as Brine is very low in protein and nutrient value, and also is like 83% moisture!!! Might as well feed the fish water! hahahah
No, Seriously...Mysis, Marine cuisine and vegetable food would be beneficial!
