need lowtech low cost low maintenance help for a 10g

[merman22]

i have a 55g fish tank so i was thinking right off the bat i have a supply of ramshorn snails, pond snails, baby guppies, pregnant ghost shrimp and cycled tank water i could keep in my 10g. i'd like to keep at least one of these species if possible. i also have like $100ish i can afford to put it in this (lol not really). insects are cool, and i'd imagine not too much maintenance, but i could use something help on choosing something to live above the water. amphibians may or may not be too much work, and i don't know what can live in with them. even brine shrimp are alright, just some life and movement. also not too sure on plants. im sort of going for functionality, so anything easy would be cool. any low tech low cost setup ideas anyone have as far as lighting and everything? lol i've always been fascinated by paludariums and i'm kinda lost in all the possibilities. brine shrimp? hermit crabs? lucky bamboo? lol just not really sure

anyone able to help or point in the right direction?

p.s. unfortunately i still live with my mom and there are no feeder crickets allowed in the house, and i can't keep live food in the fridge or freezer
