You should find many recipes on the internet that work fine. My only suggestion is not to use beef heart. The fat in mammals that cannot be removed is insoluble at normal aquarium temperatures. Use turkey or other poultry hearts instead. At least that is what I was told by a discus breeder who made his own - and he was a veterinarian.

There are some here but this site looks woefully outdated so tread lightly. https://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/food_recipes.php
I'd go with shrimp, cod, peas, greens, fish vitamins. play with the textures in a food processor until you get something like a loose paste that you can put into an ice cube tray and freeze. Of course you can vary the ingredients a bit based on who you're feeding.
