Is this a good clean-up-crew?

Reef Topia has this on special right now.

100 Mixed size Turbo {Astrae} Snail, 100 Small Blueleg Hermits and 24 Large Cerith {C. Litteratum} and 6 Nerite {tesselata} Total = $109.00 FREE SHIPPING on this special.

Is that a good deal for a 125 gallon system? It seems like way too many turbos. Price per invert. is great though.

Otherwise I was thinking 20 turbos, 50 cerith, and 100 nessarius.

Still way too many, IMO. Is this a fairly new setup? If so, I'd start with about a dozen turbos, 10 - 15 ceriths, and a dozen nassarius and add to it as the algae growth increases.
