Cleaner shrimp and predator fish

I would not trust a porc puffer with anything they can get their teeth into to.
 
I have had a cleaner shrimp and a coral banded shrimp and then added a porcupine puffer a few months ago. So far so good…. We’ll see what happens as it gets bigger
 
Our Porcupine Puffers never went after Cleaner Shrimp, only blood red shrimp. Eels I have no experience to draw from.

Thanks for the video, there's not many videos out there like this one. When I purchased mine two years ago the lfs owner told me he would eat everything in my tank as they were bagging the fish up, like they were trying to discourge me from buying him. I got mine to eat when I feed the tank PE mysis.
 
As others have said the odds are not in your favor. If it were to work at all I think the shrimp would have to be established in the tank before adding the porc or snowflake but even then I think the odds for success are remote.
