yeah, thats what I was worried about
In the UK we dont have petco and the like but I'll try and get a hold of a female betta if I decide to choose one 
so far I think it will be a betta, as I prefer there personalities over apistogramma
Stumped on what fish to get for my tank

I wish the Petco's and Petsmarts here carried Plakats I've never seen one at any of them, I really want a black plakat.
Okay, now, you may not think that mollies will outgrow a 10gal, but they will, eventually. They generally top out 3-4in long for females (Mine are around 3in now) and would really prefer a 20gal or larger tank.
In that tank I would get a small schooling fish, like tetras, and then leave it at that. I've never had a flying fox fish, so I don't really know if tetras would be compatable with one. Keep the 2 mollies as the centerpiece.

kk FF thanks, I know yuo were overun with mollies xD so how does this sound?
1 flying fox
6 dalmatian mollie
1 sparkling gourami (forgot to mention him, survivor of a group of four)
6 of some tetras species? the rummies didnt do well, so suggestions?

Sorry I think I have misunderstood but yes I could half the mollies, but the rummynose tetras didn't work out in the first place due to the flying fox, and my flying fox is my favourite fish. I also am quite attached to the molly fry seen as they are the first fish I have raised since they were just born. I know I sound as if I am not listening to you but I am. Sorry for being so stubborn guys
I think that the 2 mollies you have are plenty. Get 8-10 Neon Tetras, they should be okay with Gouramis and mollies. No promises on the Flying Fox fish.
EDIT: Wait, the other 4 are the fry? Then I would take out the males and give them to a LFS ASAP. Keep only females and eventually they will stop spouting out fry.

yeah the 4 others are fry, and my flying fox takes care of the fry
these are the first I have found since I got them last year. I promise I will not runover with fry as Ill leave all other fry in the tank. I like harlquin rasboras, how does 6-8 of them sound? not really into neons much :/ I know, I am very picky 
sorry, but u really can't keep a flying fox in either of ur tanks. it needs at least a 55G

sorry
and for the 10G, even if ur attached to the molly fry, just sex them, and keep a trio(male + 2 females) and give away the others or just let them fight for survival in ur 26G.
for tetras
u could do 6-8 green neon tetras, they are super tiny and look great
