What can these fish eat other then fish food (for a healthier diet!)?

So I have these fish in my 55 gallon aquarium so far:

4 red platys, more to come (female pregnant)
6 scissortail rasboras
2 juvenile angelfish
(Soon I’ll have a pictus catfish, more platys, swordtails and a dwarf gourami or two).

What can the fish I have now eat other then fish flakes, peas and lettuce, and brine shrimp?
What can all of the fish (fish I have now and ones in the future) eat besides flakes, peas, lettuce and brine shrimp?

Thanks!!!

What to feed Guppy Fry?

hi! My Guppies just gave birth to some fry. What do I feed my fry to grow up as fast as possible? [ Conditions... : heated 10 gallon aquarium. about 14 Fry in the tank. Lots of decortations [ about 2 big ones and 3 small ones ], and just fed them today. I heard brine shrimp? How much do Brine Shrimp cost?

Does anyone know where to buy a cheap, 20-30 gallon aquarium that is fairly inexpensive?

I have 2 tiger barbs that are fighting and need to be put in a school in a larger tank.

Also, How do you treat swim bladder disorder? Can’t you use brine shrimp and skinned peas?
It also needs to be acrylic. How many gallons do you think this: http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=14645020
could hold? Mine currently has a 12 gallon Eclipse on it and it is doing fine.
Ive had this tank for a while now with 12 gallons on it. If the tank is longer, the weight will be spread more to the support beams.
