That thread has a lot of ideas on feeding fish and corals. I make my own food based on ideas from there. Some frozen Formula 1, mysid shrimp, and Cyclop-Eeze might be a fine place to start.

I feed mine frozen mysid. I plan on adding Cyclop-Eeze soon because I have just started adding coral. I understand the frozen food is more nutritious.
