It seems to me that he's just being a normal betta. If you start to see differences in behavior such as not eating, not swimming at all, etc. then there could be a problem. Also, if he's not pooping that is also a problem. If he has trouble swimming, that's a problem.

Sometimes when you feed a different food the fish can get indigestion,so you could skip 1 day feeding or feed less (what are you feeding him now?)how long have you had him
