Wow, 1cm is really, really young. Teeny tiny baby.

The adult fish could certainly benefit from the larger space, but I know that it's super important for baby bettas to have fresh clean environments, which would mean you'd have to really be careful with the 1 gallon if you put the baby in there. And if it has a filter, it would have to be something that wouldn't suck the baby up.

I don't know. Maybe someone with more experience can give you better advice.

I would wait until the baby is fully grown. I think it is 9 months?
Then you can switch who ever is bigger to the bigger tank. Or maybe within that time you can get another 2.5 gallon tank and just use the 1 gallon as a holding tank or hospital tank if they ever need it. :]
