Only feed your betta high-quality food and make sure he's getting a balanced diet. Sometimes a small change in water can cause bettas to stop eating. Check your water parameters and see if there's a problem. If the water temperature is too cold it may slow his metabolism resulting in him eating less.

Ember tetras and a betta should work, but I would recommend having a backup plan to move the betta into his own (heated and filtered) tank if he ends up getting nipped at too much. As for any tetra, you should aim for a bare minimum of 6 tetras, but 8+ will make the fish feel more comfortable.
