Keeping Rcs With Guppies?

I would love to add a colony of RCS to my 10 gallon tank, but it currently has two guppy inhabitants. I also have two amano shrimp, which the guppies have never bothered. Just wondering if I can get some opinions and advice from this side of the forum.
Do you think my guppies would devour any shrimplets, or do you think most/some of them could make it? Will the guppies also eat adult RCS?
I'll try to attach a photo of my tank so you can see what I'm dealing with here.

Before I add the shrimp, I do plan to add more plants, so any easy, low-tech plant recommendations for shrimp would be great as well!

I keep RCS and guppies together with no problems I can't answer about the shrimplets though, because I ended up with all females somehow I plan on fixing that at some point...

Some easy plants (from easiest to hardest imo) are java moss, anarchis, Java fern, hornwort, anubas, Amazon sword, and duckweed. I put duckweed last because it grows quickly, but my guppies always eat it lol

 

I've seen my guppies hunt down shrimp as old as 3 weeks. And the shrimplets are so stupid, they just swim around out in the open.

The population of shrimp will still grow, but nowhere near as explosive as shrimp only tanks. And you will rarely see the shrimplets. If you do see them, it'll be pretty exciting, for both you and the shrimplet

Is there any good ways to tell the males and females apart?

 

Saddle on female, fuller body, better coloration. Go look up some pics.

Oh and I knew the shrimp fry were 3 weeks because I moved them from a shrimp only tank. They'd have never made it to 3 weeks old in the guppy tank. So you need a shrimp only to grow out shrimp to put in a display tank with fish.

Not so difficult as I've been growing shrimp in 1 gallon tanks. I've gotten hundreds from a single 1 gallon lol.

 

Should have no problem, as others pointed out you might loose a few shrimplets, but I bet a lot will find hiding spots.
Keep your guppies well feed adds lots of driftwood my shrimp love it and I bet everything will be fine.

Yes, generally females are larger and more red than males, but the saddle is a sure way to identify gender.
Females will have a yellow section in their body (looks like intestines) that are unfertilized eggs in darkly colored females, it might be harder to see, or else look black instead of yellow. You might also be able to see pregnant females holding their eggs

I can try to take a picture of one of my girls later to demonstrate a saddle, of you can just Google s ;D
