Would it be safe to have both a Cleaner Shrimp and a Red Fire Shrimp in a 34 Gallon RSM? Both would be about the same size. I am getting the ok from my LFS but I know they are all about making a sale. I currently own the Cleaner Shrimp.
 
I have a pair of cleaners with a fire shrimp in a 260 and they all hang out together in the same corner by the same rock. Even if they didn't like each other, I don't think they could do much damage as they're both weakly equiped for battle. I'd say go ahead. Both are pretty benign creatures.
 
I have a skunk cleaner shrimp, fire/blood shrimp, and a cave cleaner shrimp all in my 55. They get along just fine, though the skunk cleaner is the only one that its always out and about. The fire shrimp and cave cleaner tend to hide for days on end.
