Turbo snail

I have a 1 month old 60g tank. It is starting to grow GHA and I'm looking at getting a few turbo snails, how many should I start with?

Assuming the tank has already cycled, five sounds like a good number. GL.

They eat gha, but often not as fast as it can grow. I've heard great results with a pencil urchin in a mixed reef

Cleaner Shrimp eat left over tidbits of food and parasites and dead skin off of your fish.
