What Fish Can I add to a 10 gallon tank?

I already looked through the stickies but they ended up being blank pages once they load. I have a 10 gallon tank in Florida. Right now I'm in Maryland but I hope to move back to Florida one day next year and I hope to clean up my 10 gallon tank, set it up again, cycle and then add some lively fish to it.

While this won't be for a long time I want to know what types of fish are good for a tank that size that are not a Betta Sorority and do not breed unless conditioned to, basically if I get guppies I only want males.

So how many fish and what kinds can I add to a 10 gallon tank for it to be lively and colorful all day long.

And on that type of substrate. Most corys reach 3 inches or more, and since they need to be kept in a group...as you can imagine, that will overstock very quickly and they'll all be crammed for space. I would also be leery of tetras as they can also get to 2-3 inches, and again, a group will easily overstock a 10.

Off the top of my head all I can think of are male guppies or a betta fish. A ten gallon, unfortunately, doesn't have much space.
