Chinese algae eaters and neocaridina?

Has anyone had any experience with keeping these two in a tank together? I have a 125 gallon planted tank with neocaridinas. My wife really wants 2 Chinese algea eaters but I can't find much info on them regarding shrimp. From what I have read they can show aggression but it's usually towards other algae eaters of a similar size. I posted about this in some Facebook groups I'm in and I'm getting mixed info some people say they are fine some say they are demon fish that will murder everything. So any info would be great thanks

In my 10 gallon tank I have one Chinese algae eater and dozens and dozens of neocaridinas. The shrimp are breeding like crazy and babies are growing, so there's clearly no issues. The fish and the shrimp both completely ignore each other. I've never even seen a slight act of aggression, and a 10 gallon is a pretty confined space, but they live peacefully in harmony with each other.
