Am a starter at aquariums, 12 gal and a 1 gal, an I was wondering why exactly do I need a heater? I live in Texas
Regardless of where you live, with tropical fish, you should always have a heater in my opinion. You never know.
+1 IMO a 1 gallon is only good for snails or a temporary betta homeIf you can, try to upgrade the betta tank to a 5 gallon. Although the pet stores keep them in 10oz containers, they really can thrive in a small 5 gallon tank and will be much happier/less stressed.
