Might be an old chestnut but I would suggest there isn't anything better than feeding what mother nature feeds as much as is reasonably possible. You will have to put your own definition on reasonable there.
I buy live mussels from Morrisons along with frozen in the shell clams and frozen scallops. I have just been in Morrisons and picked up a bag a fresh mussels reduced to £1-60p about $2 of your funny money and dropped them straight in the freezer. These will last me a few months.
I feed other fresh foods that I buy from the fish market I freeze including fish roe cockle squid shrimp and prawn. I hardly ever feed flake or pellets.
I also cultivate pods outdoors in the Sumner and brine shrimp in the winter.
