Soley based of google i have no experience (hopefully will give a bump to get someone with first hand experience):

most sources say peaceful, nocternal, max of 8 inches so definitly dont need huge tank. i didnt see any explicit mention of eating cleaner shrimp but some ppl said to start feeding it with ghost shrimp so i would worry a bit
