I bought one of those "Ultimate Guide to fishkeeping" books at a local borders bookstore recently. It's been pretty helpful with pH and, hardness, and water changes and all. But I saw a little tip in the food section that really helped.

Using mosquito larvae as food.

I made a synthetic stagnant water source that made 50 or so larvae, and it's been cropping them out since.

They are a treat for the betta and I've yet to see one hit the bottom of his tank.

I just put McDonalds Sweet Tea styrofoam cup out, put some cycled aquarium water and algae in it. Let it go stagnant and watch the little squirmies start to appear.
 
I've used them as a staple diet for my betta. He LOVES them and they're great for him. Good natural food :) Also, he loves me for it haha
