I’ve never kept a giant betta but from what I’ve seen and read, they can get up to 6”. So IMO a 10 is much too small for a 6” fish. I think a standard size betta would be a better option.

Yeah I'd agree, 10g's is just far too small. Personally I would say no less then a 40g breeder tank for a giant betta, atleast that way it would have plenty of room to turn around even at max size.

You can look at some of the species other than betta splendens. There are some pretty cool species, many look like snakeheads imo!
