Default shrimp compatibility?

cleaner shrimps vs sexy shrimps vs pistol shrimps

what's the likelihood of these three shrimps killing each other? i've got 2 cleaners in a 46 gallon right now, would adding the other two be ok?

everything is fine but CBS is taking alot of place( moving around the tank instead of just staying in one corner as the rest does.)
