shrimp compatibility?
 
cleaner shrimps vs sexy shrimps vs pistol shrimps

what's the likelihood of these three shrimps killing each other? i've got 2 cleaners in a 46 gallon right now, would adding the other two be ok?

I have 2 fire cleaner shrimps, 4 sexy shrimps, and 2 pistol shrimps. No problems.

i got coral banded shrimp , 2 cleaner, 1 fire , 1 pistol
everything is fine but CBS is taking alot of place( moving around the tank instead of just staying in one corner as the rest does.)
