Quarantine skunk cleaners with snails, hermits and emerald crab

[pseudorand]

Can I quarantine skunk cleaner shrimp with some astrea snails, very small hermit crabs and and emerald crab? Or will the shrimp murder the crabs?

I just got new corals in QT. To avoid multiple rounds of multi-month QT, I got a bunch of new inverts I've been wanting too. I also want some cleaner shrimp, but I've read they can be aggressive, especially if not well fed. My QT is bare bottom with minimal hiding places. Any thoughts if the shrimp will kill my other inverts, or can I QT them all together safely?

I think they will be OK. BTW, not many people quarantine their inverts. Mostly quarantine fish and dip corals.
