I would feed a variety of foods. The frozen Formula 1 is a good starting point, IMO. I make my own food based on the coral (and fish) food recipe from this thread:

Cyclop-Eeze, mysid shrimp, krill, and fresh whole shellfish are some ingredients that seem to be popular.

Clowns are not picky eaters. Feed them a good variety though.

I have 2 clowns and I feed them a mix of Formula 1, Fresh Zooplankton which they seem to love, flake food, Mysid shrimp, Pygmy angel formula which is really for my flame angel but they eat it too and krill. I always mix it up and they eat it all. MOstly they bring the krill to their anemones
