Define unfiltered. What type of set up?

10 gallon tank.

No filter at all (been that way for a number of years now)

Silt and rubble substrate

I removed all the java moss and put it in another tank a year ago so no plants.

Algae on the glass

OK.. but is there water movement in some way or is this tank stagnant ?
If stagnant no with some water movement and good quality water yes.
No lamprey is going to live in a stagnant sewer they need clean water with good oxygen and movement.
