I had a pistol shrimp for a while, it ended up killing my cleaner. They had lived together in their last owners tank, but I think that the change to a nano just didnt give them enough room. Pistol went to a friend, I will try a cleaner again some day, but after a little bit of waiting.

 

Anyway, thats just my experience, you may end up just fine, I know its been done with success.
