Default Hiding place for shrimp tanks

I have a 1 ft tank cycled for 2 weeks. Intend to introduce cherry shrimp. Is hiding place a must? My tank is planted with some tall plants.
Should I get those black tube for shrimp hiding?
Those quite expensive.

28.5 is considered quite high. Monitor the shrimps
