Could it work? Antennata's don't get as big as Volitans of course but still
Antennata Lionfish and Cleaner shrimp compatibility?

Cleaners sometimes get a "pass", sometimes not.
Your best chance of success would be to establish the cleaner in the DT first. If not, then you'll want to let the cleaner go after lights near the rockwork so it can hide and get its bearings. Do out on a day you've fed the lionfish, to increase your chances of success. Something to consider is that P. antennata loves crustaceans in the wild.
It's really all about risk tolerance at this point...if seeing a cleaner shrimp get eaten would bother you, best not try it.
