Those shrimp need to feed of the discharge of an anemone.I have read they cant live without it.I hope you got one.

Just the pedersons cleaner shrimp requires an anemone.Skunk and fire dont.

Pederson's shrimp didn't work in my tank. They were attracted to the light, so anytime the tv or a lamp came on in the room, they'd be swimming up in the current. They all ended up being sucked into the sump and killed.
