Any True Percs in?
You'r probably looking at no more then 15 animals using a mix of trochus and cerith snails. Trochus are awesome with the diatoms while cerith do a great job with some types of hair algae.

Keeping that in mind, I wouldn't add more then 5 snails at a time, giving them 1-2 weeks in between additions to observe how well they keep up with your algae.

No percs right now.. hah
