I have to agree with Ray and Patrick about the one outlet being enough for filter, heater, and standard fluorescent light fixture for a 10 gallon tank, which means you should be able to keep most any of the fishes that are suitable for a 10 gallon.
If you choose to go without the heater there are also white clouds and gold white clouds that are both pretty/colorful, a bit larger than the endlers/guppies, active, and do better in the cooler temps since they are a minnow species.
Just because nobody else has mentioned it yet I feel the need to warn you that 10 gallons is not nearly large enough to raise an axolotl. Minimum tank size for 1 would be about a 40 breeder, and that's if you keep up good on water changes. They get rather large and are quite dirty/messy and require extremely good water conditions at all times. Like most any amphibian they are subject to some major health issues if the water is less than perfect quality, most commonly skin infections and open sores.
Good luck with your new tank.
