Does Marine Betta eat cleaner shrimps?

this is one of the most elegant fish, very clam and usually moves with grace. Once it get to know you, it will get out of hiding most of the times.
 
Apparently the Calloplesiops altivelis is preying on marine fish.
Would a approx. 2" long fish like an firefish (Nemateleotris decora, purple firefish
for instance) be safe with a fully grown Comet / Marine betta?

Thanks
 
I picked up another small one today, do you have a sure way to sex them?

Is there a size difference between sexes?

I am not sure that any small fish is really safe around a Marine Betta. That being said... I have a 2" Royal Gramma in with mine. He keeps a good distance from the Betta.
