10 gallon is able to make a stable setup, you just need to maintain it a little more. As for vendors, i have found big al's to be quite great for livestock, but for corals, go to aquarium illusions.
Tips for setup I would suggest would be to have at least 1-2" of sand on the bottom for athestics and to make everything a little more stable. that is where a little more of the nitrification process goes on. other than that, use 1lb of live rock for every gallon, and have fun with the new tank.
