The feather dusters will probably benefit from some live phytoplankton... not the dead stuff Kent sells. Your duncan and bubble tip contain photosynthetic algae and so they do not require feeding (your lighting should be sufficient). But if you want to feed them the duncan will eat larger bits of food like mysis shrimp and the bubble tip can take even larger offerings like krill and silversides.
