What size cleaner crew?

My tank is 180 gallons and has 200lbs of LR in it. Cleaners consist of:
2 Serpeant Stars
20 Hermits
6 Emeralds
3 Turbo snails
10 Nassarius Snails
A porcelain crab
monkey shrimp
2 cleaner shrimp
I will be placing another order soon and planned to add another 10 to 20 hermits...will I be overstocking inverts if I do that or would that be ok? What I have now keeps the tank fairly clean, I just like them and would like some of the new jaded ones that are on the site. Any suggestions are welcome, thank you.

I think you will be fine to add a larger cleanup crew. You have a descent sized tank and plenty of rock.
