Many of the options in your poll will not work in a 10g, but we can find some. First issue though is the water parameters. What is the GH (general hardness) of your source (tap) water? And pH too. Many if not all of the small "nano" sized fish suited to a 10g will have more specific requirements when it comes to water, so this is important.
yeah
If you have soft water I would go with a betta, if you have hard water I would go with 3-5 male guppies!
yea if you want females dont get just females because they may already be storing sperm
@Unicornblast5000 can you tell us the hardness (GH) of your tap water please.

If water allows- I'm going with a trio of pea puffers
Given the other parameters & conditions given in that post, I assume the GH is measured by a strip tester.
Can you find out from your parents who provides your water, then look on their website for hardness.

Heres a link about them, this site is very helpful for other fish as well! https://www.seriouslyfish.com/species/carinotetraodon-travancoricus/
If you have soft water, (25 ppm/1.4 dH) that is way too soft for puffers I'm afraid
