New Fish Pics - Aquarium Advice

Here are some pics of my new fish from liveaquaria. They are in [acronym:6e7e7de5d3="quarantine or quart depending on context"]QT[/acronym:6e7e7de5d3] now for probably 3 weeks, I got two clowns which are 3/4" each, and a royal gramma. The royal gramma had a rough trip to my house and had a hard time acclimating but 24 hours later hes doing much much better.
Any one know what to feed the tiny clowns? I tried Frozen Prime Reef, and frozen dwarf angel food and it seemed to only take a few pieces. The royal gramma was eating both and seemed to have no problem. I guess given the size of the clowns I can't expect them to eat a ton of food, but im welcome to ideas.

what kind of clowns are thoughs? occellaris or percs?

tank raised occelaris from liveaquaria, they are a little lighter in color then I would like but I'm hoping given some vitamins and food once they grow bigger they will get a deeper orange

I purchased a few of the same clowns from liveaquaria about 6 months ago. They will darken up. I know they will eat frozen cyclopeeze.

you could try to soak the frozen in garlic, it worked for my clowns....

They must be eating something to have survived this long. They don't need much.

They'll get a Little darker. Here's a few pics of my tank raised occelaris around the same size....They also seem to love the Hikari Marine S pellets.
