observe ur fishes. no gulping, not constantly swimming at surface = oxygen OK.
if ur still concerned, you can always buy a Dissolved Oxygen (DO) meter to test ur water.

Agreed. This is the best way. Do you have plants in your tank by the way? Cause if you do, u will have less oxygen when they aren't photosynthesizing.

Observe your fish behavior, if they do not gasp for air on the surface, they are okie.
