I don't have a favorite but here are my top choices. I feed different food for different fishes needs.
Cyclopeeze for smaller fish(Nano), mandarins, coral, gorgs. I've never had a problem to get mandarins to take cyclopeeze as a first food. They are pod eaters so they get pods(cylopeeze)
PE Mysis has always been good but I like the ocean fresh plankton better. Similar in size but the strong shelfish smell of the plankton says it all for me. The feeding response of my corals was insane with the ocean fresh. As soon as it hit the water everything new it was feeding time. Too bad I can't find it here locally which is kind of funny because it's caught just north of here.
Hikari Mysis because they are way smaller then the PE mysis and a little bigger then brine shrimp. Sometime PE mysis are just too big.
Being right on the ocean, some of the best I feed would be stuff I get locally and freeze myself.(Uni-Urchin eggs, oyster ovary/eggs, herring roe)
