Not sure, but ive constantly got female ghost shrimps with eggs in my community, NEVER seen a baby shrimp, filter may have got them though. Chances are they will if they are small enough idk though.

putting a large ball of java moss in the tank would probably help

I've had guppies and cherry shrimp together for about 5 years.
I've never had a problem till about a year ago, now i get very few shrimp babies, they tick over but at about 10-15 shrimp, but i used to have 100's
So basically yes they will, unless your lucky like i used to be.

Ghost shrimp or ammino shrimp, the lave need to go to sea for the fist few stages of life this would explain why you dont find any.
