They need time to themselves, to eat, sleep, drink and groom themselves. Once or twice a day for up to 30 mins is OK. You will discover in time what is bad/good for them. Every gerbil is different.

Will two boy gerbils fight together in a cage?
two boy gerbils should not fight, aslong as they knew each other form since they were pups. if not, use the split cage method and you should be fine. if you leave some old bedding in the cage when you clean it out gerbils are less likely to fight. girl gerbils are more dominent so boys are less likely to fight then girls. always keep a pair of gerbils, or they will get depressed. some gerbils do like to live alone, but this is uncommon.
