Any pellet food, new life spectrum, formula one/two, etc. should work. Pellets are concentrated foods I believe, however some are packaged with a gelatin base. There is some debate about the benefits/drawbacks of the gel in tanks.

I use the formula one/two mini pellet. I buy one of each and mix them into single container. When I feed, it is one or two pinches of the mixed pellets dropped into the tank at a rate that the fish are able to get every pellet before it hits the bottem.
