Can guppies live in freshwater without aquarium salt added?

I have a ten gallon tank with a betta, 8 glofish, and 3 shrimp. I want to add some guppies, but I saw that they need aquarium salt added. Can I just put the guppies in without adding the salt or will the salt kill my other fish?

Do you put salt in your freshwater aquarium?

Good shrimp for a salt water nano tank.?

I have a friend to help me with the startup and maintenance aspects of a salt water tank, he’s got an amazing one in his home and I’m pretty well-versed in freshwater keeping.

My question is what are some really interesting shrimp (I don’t want any fish, it’s too small – 3 gallons) that are interesting and won’t kill each other.

I’m looking to have 2-3 shrimp, maybe some crabs or some snails.

I know nothing about salt water creatures so please suggest easier ones.
