Wet cat food recommendations, please

My 3 cats are on wet food only for the most part (one boy has FIV and has had history of crystals but not in few years since he went on wet food only). 2 boys (shorthair), 1 feisty long-hair with some mane coon in her for sure.

I'm at square one again. Damn my cats are picky mf'ers.

What I've tried:

-tiki cat: they loved it, but I can't afford it anymore. I also don't think there's enough calories in them, even in their 6 oz cans. Plus, their ingredients seem to be getting worse and/or lower in the ingredient list. I think they ran out of their pre-GM made food (pure conjecture)

-fancy feast-they seem to like it so far, but they only come in small cans (not a fan they are owned by nestle/purina because I think the company is absolutely horrible, but that's my personal thing).

-Nulo/halo: cats loved halo, they liked Nulo but both too high in minerals...like scary high. both good price points

-sheba/iams: liked okay. I hate the packaging and they only come in small sizes

-wholehearted morsels: they like it decently enough, but peas/legumes are pretty high in the ingredient list

-RC urinary: like okay. I can't seem to find the calorie content (or it's so tiny that it's illegible).

soulastic/weruva: I really, really want to support weruva, and my cats like it. I love that it's family owned, I think they are the last remaining that is (of the major brands) but don't quote me. But the calorie content is pretty low when you feed three cats, even with the big 10 oz cans. And the protein percentage doesn't compensate for the loss like tiki cat does.

I'm trying to stay around 50-55 cent/oz. Variety packs are key. Bigger cans an added bonus. Any advice???? I know...I'm picky because my cats are picky. I'd do anything for them. Thank you guys so much.
