Recommendations for a 10g Single fish or species tank

I just got a ten gallon tank with some black skirt tetras from someone, but the fish did not survive the move. I am now looking to restock. I was thinking of a species tank of some sort, and I'm looking for suggestions. Some initial thoughts are an aggressive fish that can be kept solo (i.e. a butterfly fish) or a dwarf puffer tank. I guess what I’m looking for is something I could not keep in any of my other community tanks. I understand the restrictions due to size, just looking for some input. Thanks in advance for your time.

Hmm, I recommend a dwarf puffer tank. Those little guys are amazing, tons of "personality". Always investigating what your doing. The ones I had always had their nose in whatever i was doing in the tank. You could probably do a couple in a 10g. Or you could also go with a betta.

Maybe a convict cichlid, or firemouth, but get more opinions on the last two, as I have never owned them.
