I feed them primarily on cichlid flakes, but supplement their diet with algae wafers.
 
ruben is right, variety is the best.

Look for:
New Life Spectrum Cichlid Pellets
Hikari Gold, Hikari Staple, Hikari Excel
Give them Algae wafers every once and awhile (as stated before)

Also: Spirulina Enhanced Brine Shrimp, Beefheart, and the OCCASIONAL bloodworm.

For a live treat try ghost shrimp, or the occasional feeder guppy.

Also veggies can be a good idea.
