How many snails

[Les]

My tank just cycled now I want snails, Im adding some live rock this week. How many snails can I safely add at one time and what types? I have a 125 gal tank, My Lfs get a premium on these critters so I was looking at ordering as many as I can get for a good price.

I would do a mix, as many as 1 per 2 gallons. For grazing, I like astraeas, turbos and trochus. For the sandbed, nassarius and fighting conchs are great.

Can I add 50 or so at the same time or will it spike the tank
