Radiata lions or Turkey fish stay smaller, but to be honest w/ you 10 gallons is WAAAYYY to small for a lion at all. The amounrt of waste they produce is going to overload the tank rapidly. I wouldnt put a lion in a tank smaller than 30 inches long...and thats as a sole occupant. Plan to do frequent, (weekly) water changes to keep the lion in a smaller tank like I described.
