Looks great! Just make sure it is completely cycled before you add those shrimps, they are more sensitive to the water than most fish during a cycle.
I've seen some awesome stuff done with the moss balls and this is one of them. Most people just leave it to grow in their tank only 2 people I have seen have used it as a driftwood cover. And I have to say, it does make it look alot better wiht the thick moss ball than stringy algae or java moss.
As for the wood, do you know what type of wood it is? Or was it just sold as aquatic wood. Not all wood is safe for aquarium use because either it falls apart or leeches harmful toxins. Is it as though it rotted in the water, all soft and spongy to the touch?
