Big enough not to get eaten. I don't think there's any other size limit. What's the situation in your tank?

Mine have cleaned blennies and damsels before. It is really up to the fish.

I have a few tiny chromis they go up and the cleaner shrimp goes all inside the gills the mouth. As long as the fish lets them I would guess any size.
