A 1 gallon tank is not large enough for even 1 Betta, let alone adding an Algae eater as well to the tank. The basic rules for keeping fish sucessfully are.:- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water.(A Betta is a 3 inch fish) :- Every tank must have a permanently running 'cycled' filter. Every tank must have at least 50% of its water replaced every week. If you follow the rules you will stand a chance of keeping fish sucessfully. If you don't I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and dying before their due time. Bettas and Algae eaters are both tropical species and should also have a heater to keep their water temperature at around 78F.

Is a 5th of a gallon of water enough to keep a betta fish alive?

Kinda. Although it is not recommended. The smallest thing that I have ever used for a Betta is a 1/4 gallon bowl. If it is a male, I would highly recommend something bigger than and 1/5 gallon bowl. If it is a female, it would be OK although it would be much better for it to be in something bigger. Hope I helped!
