Wow, thats one bad week. All fish are individual, but i agree. Usually the combo works out
 
I have a cleaner and fire together. Fire only comes out to eat. The cleaner is all over the place.
 
I wouldn't add the fire shrimp simply because they hide ALOT. I've never seen any aggression out of them though.
