Cleanup crew with lionfish?

What kind of cleaners can I have with a large 17 year old lion? We bought the already-established tank, and the previous owner had NO cleaners at all. We need to change that, right? But I think he'll eat shrimp....so what are my alternatives?
Thanks...from a total newbie:)

hermit crabs and snails pretty much. you could do urchins too but i wouldn't suggest it on account they are bulldozers and eat everything including the color right off of your live rock that is if you have live rock.

I have snails, hermits, turbos, conchs, and a sand sifting star with my lion. No problems whatsoever.
