I kept CBS with other shrimp in practically every tank I've ever had. Never had an issue.

do you have to feed the cbs specifically or are they good with just picking up the leftovers?

I have had 2 cleaners and a CBS for 2 years. They have never had a problem with each other. However, I rarely see the CBS.
