What do you do if your betta doesnt like her food but you cant get a different kind?

Well, first check what kind of food you are feeding your betta. Bettas prefer pellets, but flakes are okay as well. If you are not feeding the betta these, then you have no choice but to purchase either flake food or pellets. If you are feeding your betta flake food or pellets and it's not eating, then it may be ill or depressed. Is it slinking along on the ground, hiding, not interacting with any other fish, or showing signs of fatigue? If so, then it may be sick, and that's why it lost it's appetite.
