Mine eat the cichlid formula and thera+A, probably the later or the finicky eater formula.

We feed our loach a variety of shrimp pellets, frozen blood worms, thawed, frozen mosquito larvae, thawed, frozen brine shrimp, thaed, TetraMin tablets, blanched zucchini, blanched cucumber, blanched brussel sprouts.  It doesn't like carrots.  We fed some salad shrimp today, thawed, and it and all the other fish went bonkers.  The loach may even eat a little of the seaweed salad we feed our pleco but we can't confirm that because that goes in at night.

Basically, our loach (and all our fish) get a wide variety to eat and we cycle different foods to keep it interesting.  We'd have to say that it likes the shrimp pellets and zucchini the most, though.  Just can't leave the veggies in too long, though.
