Espei pencils are not aggressive.
I have them with my guppies, cories, plecos and sidthimunkis.
I never have them with my shrimps though.
However, they schooled in the upper level of the tank and almost 100% of their activiites are up there and never seen them in the bottom neither in the middle level. In addition, they only grow up to 1" to 1.25". I think it's safe to have them with shrimps. They schooled better than the tetras.

I have had these and other pencil fish with endlers and guppies and with ghost and cherry red shrimps and the pencil fish never bothered the shrimp or anything else. They basically school by themselves and play and do not bother the other fish.
