Should you be concerned that your Betta fish is very active in his ten gallon tank?

If a fish is excessivly active, I always check the water for Ammonia and Nitrite content. There are test kits available at pet shops and they are not expensive. If you are keeping to the basic rules of fishkeeping you should not have a Nitrite or Ammonia problem. The basic rules for keeping any kind of fish are. 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. Every tank need to have at least 50% of it water changed evey week. Comply with the above rules and your fish stand a chance of surviving. Fail to comply with them and I can guarantee that your fish will have constant health problems.

Could 2 Cherry Barbs fit in a 1 gallon tank?
Not a chance. They are active fish that like living in schools and would be miserable in such a tiny tank. The only fish that could comfortably live in a tank this size is a betta. Even a betta should ideally have a bigger tank, but will be comfortable in one gallon if 70% water changes are done weekly, RELIGIOUSLY. NEVER skip a water change.
1 gallon tank what type of fish can you put in it?
A 1 gallon tank could have one betta fish, but you will need to be diligent about changing the water on a regular basis. The smallest tank that should be used, even for a betta, is a 2.5 gallon tank as it at least gives the fish swimming room.
