imho,all shrimps are best kept in a moss tank..
if it's a moss-only tank,try to limit your lighting usage cause moss only requires moderate lighting..think excessive lighting will cause hair algae.. yamato eats hair algae,so u can add a couple of yamatos into the tank..

i had a 1 feet tank on my table filled wif moss and wif co2-electricity type- wif the new -china brand- clip on 20watt light and also a fan-to keep water temp low cos had crs inside- and my moss grew like mad wifout algae... i think as long as u dun overdose nutrients, if not minimal, algae shouldnt be a prob bah, cos moss needs mininal nutrients anyway = ]

i think guppy should be ok.. to play safe,add in lots of hiding space.. have lots of moss in your tanks first..
