I have 80lb lr 60lb ls. I was thinking 30 turbo snails, 20 blue legs, a serpant star, and i have a long spined urchant now.
will this be enough? Will they eat brown alge?

That amount would suffice. Make sure your snails have plenty of food. If I'm thinking of the right snail, turbos tend to die easier than others.

I have personally found Astrea's to die more easily. If they fall, they can't turn over, and they die. I lost one that way, and have saved quite a few others from dying by placing them back on the glass.
 
stay away from the blue leg hermits they love to eat astrea turbo snails mine have all but wiped out 50 astrea the astrea seem to fall off the glass and get stuck on their back im constanly flipping them back over go with hawaiian zebra hermits or red leg hermits
