most people normally fludd to ACE and DJ back onto the edge for edge guard or another fludd

although it is really situational and doesn't make all that much of a difference.
fair is also good once you get the spacing and timing right

remember that mario has below average recovery meaning do not attempt to edgeguard with your aerials unless you ACE off the ledge or you will probably end up killin urself

I think that fludd to cape is the best action. But like acojan said it is very much situational. If you really like to go at it, try and edge guard with your aerials. Yes contrary to what acojan says.

Edge guarding isnt situational (at least when I play because I play near the edge of the stage and shield grab).

Anyways I usually use cape to a SH to a fludd (the push of the fludd will get you back to the stage)

Note: when you short hop you have to use fludd emedietly after or your opponent might not have as much trouble recovering.

You use the FLUDD to make someone miss the ledge, then you punish them. Probably with a Cape.

Cape Glide to U-air is very nice against most characters and people since they expect both of the things you listed ( Just make sure you hit them at the very beginning of U-air send them as far back as you can possibly knock some stocks off with that ;P )

Oh and also if you use Fludd and they haven't quite made it just spike its as if they are freeze framed anyway.

The best way is wait for a timed ledge grab or bair the opponent into the stage 's wall as a spike. U can foot stool them afterwards to come back to the stage and make it a definite kill. I've used this several times during tourny and it always works. Warning: this move is very situational so be very reserve with it. also this will not work against DDD , SPACIES, OR MK.
