Is it safe to keep a pistol shrimp in same tank as long nose hawkfish? Or will shrimp become dinner?

My red flame hawk fish has been a model citizen for 2 years, with pistol coral banded and cleaner shrimp. Great fish it just hangs out near the feeding corner

A tiger pistol shrimp, maybe, those suckers are pretty tough. The smaller ones, likely not. The goby would have to be tough as well, something like a yasha likely wouldn't cut it. A yellow watchman

maybe, unless you get a wimp like I had.
