Should I keep my pistol and cleaner shrimp?

Or should I get a flame hawk?

I hear the Hawk can be a pane in the arse... with other fish :(

If you already have shrimp I say keep them. Most do not live a very long time, so when they pass on you can get the fish you want.

How long do shrimp live?

I don't think I have ever had a cleaner shrimp live more than two years tops, if even that. Peppermint shrimp I don't think I have ever kept for more that a year, don't know if something eats them or what, but I don't stock shrimp eating fish.

Don't know if I am doing something wrong, they just eventually disappear. I've got some old fish too, so it's not that I have a death tank or something.
