Varying Fish Diets

I currently have 12 blue danios and 1 panda cory. (I know that the cory can’t be there on his own. I’m rehoming him on Sunday.) They eat flake food, sinking pellets (although the danios always seem to get to those before the cory) and occasional peas or cucumbers. Are there any glaring gaps in the nutritional content of their diet? How should I supplement their diet/add variety to it? Is there any homemade food I can make that doesn’t require cooking invertebrates?
Thanks.

Nothing glaring, but it doesn't hurt to supplement your fish's diet with some hearty frozen food. I would get some frozen bloodworms or brine shrimp to feed them once or twice a week with.

Ah, thanks. Do frozen foods vary by store? I.e., if I get them from a really bad PetBlank, will they be worse for my fish than if I get them from a proper store?

Probably not. Frozen foods are produced by big companies (ex: Omega One, Sanfrancisco Bay) so the retailer shouldn't matter. As long as it is not expired, it should be fine.

I have similar fish (white clouds and peppered cories) and I think they eat better than I do. If you want something easy for homemade, Repashy food is good. It comes in a power and you make it yourself.
