I have a 90g system with live rock and some newly acquired coral frags. In this size system would their be any trouble housing a cleaner shrimp or two with two peppermint shrimp?

The peppermint shrimp we have tend to hang out in a particular cave and not venture too far from there.

Please let me know if you need any additional information about my system! Would really love a cleaner but i'm afraid they would fight!:help:
 
Yes, just make sure they are well fed. One can potentially attempt to eat the other when they are molting if they are underfed or starving.
 
Yeah, I've got a pair of cleaners, and about a dozen peps.
They seem to keep from each others space, but other than that, no probs.
Now coral banded shrimp, those will get aggro.
