If you already have 4 turbos, add 4 astreas not turbos (most efficient cleaner snail especially the pacific variety and may result in snails dying due to lack of food). Then get either a tongan fighting conch or 4-6 cerith snails (eat diatoms, the brown stuff on the sand, and stir the sand.) 4-6 nassarius snails couldn't hurt either as they eat excess food and stir the sand. For your size tank, a bicolor or other small blenny would do better than a lawnmower as lawnmowers have such a ridiculous appetite, it might starve to death in that tank. Hopefully that helps.
