Mix Peppermint and Skunk cleaner shrimp?

Is it okay for Peppermint and Skunk cleaner shrimp to both be in my 90G AGA reef tank? I can't decide which to aquire so I may go with both. I'm thinking 2 of each.

I have 1 cleaner and 1 pep in my 40G and they get along fine... Although I don't see my pep much, but I think that its just shy

Try to have then all the same size when introducing them to your tank - then you will be fine. I have seen a boxing shrimp take advantage of a weak peppermint but that is all.
