old tanks?

many small fish to choose from.
I like tetras a piece of driftwood and some low tech plants.

anubias, java fern, java moss, wisteria(man I'm starting to think this stuff is a weed)

aso crypts.
 
I personally would recommend harlequin rasboras marbled hatchetfish as a schooling fish, my favorites so far.
 
Harlequin rasboras are excellent schoolers, as are Rummynose tetras. I also like Lemon tetras, Cardinals, Black neons (look awesome in a heavily planted tank), and Flame tetras.

I'd pick 2 schools and also have some bottom feeders (like cories), some otocinclus, and a centerpiece fish, like a Pearl gourami.

For plants, it depends on what lighting you will have. Do you want this to be a high, medium, or low light tank?

For one of the 10g you could plant it and have a shrimp colony. Cherry Red Shrimp are cool little guys.
For the other 10g, you could plant it and have a trio of dwarf puffers.

Most livebearers grow too large for the 10's. Try small schooling fish like rasboras or cardinals swimming through a lot of live plants. That would look really awsome.

Well um I would like medium light plants and I was thinking one school of black neons, ottos, corys, and um im not sure on another school of.... Well How many do you suggest for my 30 gal of eat of those fish ... I dont want to over stock ... I was wondering if its heavily planted means more filtration which means more fish? just curious i dont think so but i figured i would ask because one of my friend said it. and as for the shrimp that sounds like a great idea how many should i put in it... and for the 2nd 10 i have other non-fish plans for that.
 
depending on how old they are i would water test them for leaks before you try to set them up. im probably just stating the obvious but ive made that mistake before.

2 words, Breeding tanks.

Your LFS might give you store credit for your baby fish. It helps buy food for the other fish you keep.
