is there any fresh water tank cleaning shrimp

[asianmick]

what i mean is there any shrimp that will clean my tank i have a nano 1.5 gallon with 7 guppies in it and a piece of drift wood. would i be able to put some kind of cleaner in there and if so what kind? the reason why i ask is because my guppies are very messy eaters and when the food hits the floor the just leave it and dont mess with it so i want something to clean it up. I also realize this is not monster at all.

ty for ur help

I would guess that's the tannins from the Driftwood .

If it were a bigger tank I would say use Purigen in the filter, as it sucks up tannins and makes the water crystal clear .
