Well, i certainly class a cleaner shrimp as a cleanup agent...When ever i feed my tank, my cleaners are always picking bits of food that get on the rock and "cleanup" what is left..After all, they are a scavenger feeder....My two make a great job of mopping up the left overs that i dont remove after feeding...
For a 55g tank I would recommend 20 (or more) snails, 20 hermit crabs, and 2cleaner shrimp, and a couple emerald crabs...(our Em crab has yet to eat the bubble algae, so hit and miss with those guys)Ours does eat all other detrius and stuff...
Hope this helps...
Also check online Marine stores, they usually have a suggested "clean up package" for tank sizes...

I also have the same problem here... well.. it's start to become cleaning though... and take around 6 month >.<"
my tank become brown color back then... and i just put 3 feeding algae fish. i think it's already a month since i put them
That is all i have ever done with cleaners and mine have boomed in size, as long as the nitrates are down below 10 ( cycle finished ), there is no reason at all why they cant go in the tank..
