Well it's not bad for sw fish but it has no nutritional value for sw fish either.

Mmmk, but its ok for him to have one tiny guppy like once a month right?
IMO I wouldn't recommend feeding any guppies at all to your SWF. Who knows what it could possibly carry to your probably more prized tank? From what I have read they do not have any nutritional value.

I found this which was written/posted by Lion_Crazz. Not sure if it applies to guppies as well, hope it helps:
47. NEVER FEED A FISH FRESHWATER FEEDER FISH. Freshwater feeder fish cause saltwater fish to get fatty liver disease, a disease where the saltwater fish’s live gets so large that it can no longer process any food. Usually, goldfish, rosy reds, or guppies are used to feed lionfish, groupers, triggers, wrasses, puffers and other aggressive fish. This is not a good practice but one that will eventually lead to the death of your fish.

Consider it like the most unhealthy fast food out there. Once in while won't kill you, but 4 meals a day probably will
