since the piranha section didnt want me to keep a sinle rbp in a 10 gallon i will come here instead. i want a single fish to put.
heres some i think (im not sure so tell my if i can)
i was thinking'
a texas?
a convict (male)
a pleco
silver dollar
BTW im preapred to do 2-3 water changes when the fish is full size
im also investing on putting a penguin 350 or the biggest of the penguin series.
 
turn it into a small breeding factor for ghost shrimp. You can feed your monsters with them
 
just buy a bigger tank, this is monsterfishkeepers, our fish EAT anything that can fit in a 10gal. for life.

a texas...10-12"
a convict (male)...6"
a pleco... commons get huge 18"+, may be some kind a dwarf
silver dollar...5" and should be kept in shoals of 5 or more.

Even with massive filtration and multiple water changes the above mentioned fish get to large to keep in a 10 gallon.
 
None of those should be kept in a 10g. If you really want a cichlid in a 10g look at something like a German Blue Ram. Personaly I find 10g tanks a PITA and would just keep it as a hospital tank or sell it and get at least a 20g long.
 
Dwarf loaches! get a school, they are great fish.
 
get some rams, as some as i have some room in a tank that doesnt have a bunch of huge monster fish in it im gonna start looking for one.
 
cory cats a butterfly fish and some dwarf cichlids
